lyrics

My Love’s Requiem


I’m talking to the trees
Telling them that I’m still here
Shooting out the breeze
Telling them that I’ll be here
When you need a friend
I will be here at the bitter end

So what kind of sentimental fool am I?
Without you here it’s a fact I’m history
A casualty of love one more tragedy
Oh what a day for my love’s requiem
And I don’t know what to say
At my love’s requiem

Talking in my sleep
Wake up to an empty bed
Talking in my dreams
I remember what I said –
You were standing there –
Dressed in white – you were standing there
I called your name – we were lovers then

So what kind of sentimental fool am I?
Without you here it’s a fact I’m history
A casualty of love one more tragedy
Somewhere along the way love was crucified

My hanging heart’s up for sale
It don’t feel much
All it needs is a little love a tender touch
Oh what a day for my love’s requiem
I don’t know what to say at my love’s requiem

I’m talking to the trees
Telling them that I’m still here
Shooting out the breeze
Telling them that I’ll be here
When you need a friend
I will be here at the bitter end
