LYRICS
verse1
She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms

chorus...
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes 'round the yard

verse 2
She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms

chorus...
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard
