Things were all
good yesterday
and then the devil
took your memory
And if you fell
to your death today
I hope that heaven
is your resting place
I heard the doctors
put your chest in pain
but then that could
have been the medicine
And now youÂ’re lying
in the bed again
either way IÂ’ll cry
with the rest of them
And my father told me
“Son it’s not his fault
he doesnÂ’t know
your face
And youÂ’re not
the only one
although my grandma
used to say
That he used to say
darling hold me
in your arms
the way you did last night
And we'll lie inside
for a little while he wrote
I can look into your eyes
until the sun comes up
And weÂ’re wrapped
in light, in life, in love
put your open lips on mine
and slowly let them shut
For theyÂ’re designed
to be together oh
with your body
next to mine
our hearts will beat as one
And weÂ’re set alight
when weÂ’re afire in love
Ooh oh oh ooh
And things were all
good yesterday
but then the devil
took your breath away
And now weÂ’re left
here in the pain
black suit, black tie
standin' in the rain
And now my family
is one again
stapled together
with the strangerÂ’s
and a friend
Came to my mind
I should paint it
with a pen
six years old
I remember when
My father told me “Son
itÂ’s not his fault
he doesnÂ’t
know your face
And youÂ’re not
the only one
although my grandma
used to say
That he used to say
darling hold me
in your arms
the way you did last night
And we'll lie inside
for a little while he wrote
I canlook into your eyes
until the sun comes up
And weÂ’re wrapped
in light, in life, in love
put your open lips on mine
and slowly let them shut
For theyÂ’re designed
to be together oh
with your body
next to mine
our hearts will beat as one
And weÂ’re set alight
when weÂ’re afire in love
Love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
And my father
And all of my family
rise from the seats
to sing hallelujah
And my mother
And all of my family
rise from the seats
to sing hallelujah
And my brother
And all of my family
rise from the seats
to sing hallelujah
And all my brothers
And my sisters yeah
And all of my family
rise from the seats
to sing hallelujah
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
For love
