Dust and Bones

The moon she laid above us

We were staring at the cold black skies

And you laid your head around my shoulder and said

"Oh how I wish I could stay here forever,

Until our bodies turn to dust and bones”

Remember when we were younger,

We would sit there and make promises that we never kept

But now it's all just some memories again

You've changed my dear, you have changed

As the rains dropped on the window pane

Made promises that we never kept

You wrapped your arms 'round me and said

"You've changed my dear, you have changed"

If I could ever be, what you want me to be,

Would you want me to be somebody else?

If you could ever see, how much you mean to me,

Would you want me to be anybody else?

Well the days have gone, the lights are out

Maybe this dawn will make another sound

But if we ever meet in another life

We could change my dear, we could change

If I could ever be what you want me to be

Would you want me to be somebody else?

If you could ever see how much you mean to me

Would you want me to be anybody else?

Well, I can't make any promises

But I'll tell you this for sure

I'll be waiting for you in another life

I will wait my dear I will wait

Until our bodies turn to dust and bones.
