Will you say when I'm gone away
My lover came to me and we'd lay
In rooms unfamiliar but until now
Oh oh oh oh, until now
Oh oh oh oh, until now
Will you say to them when I'm gone
I loved your son for his sturdy arms
We both learned to cradle then live without
Oh oh oh oh, live without
Oh oh oh oh, live without
Will you say when I'm gone away
Your father's body was judgment day
We both dove and rose to the riverside
Oh oh oh oh, riverside
Oh oh oh oh, riverside
Will you say to me when I'm gone
Your face has faded but lingers on
'Cause light strikes a deal with each coming night
Oh oh oh oh, coming night
Oh oh oh oh, coming night
Oh oh oh oh, coming night
Oh oh oh oh, coming night
