In the distance
I hear you
weeping
I hear you
calling out my name
And for an
instant
Although I’m
sleeping
In my dreams,
we're still the same?
Then I awake
The wind is
howling
At the window
by my bed
For God’s sake
You’ve been
prowling
Through the
graveyard of my head
Now, won't
you let the body of our love
Rest in peace
By all that's
sacred up above
What we had
is dead and buried
And I'm begging
on my knees
Don't resurrect
our love
In times of
weakness
I’ll bring
flowers
And I water
them with shame
And in my meekness
I’ll sit for
hours
‘Cause I Know
it’s me to blame
When each day
ends
I hear your
footsteps
Walking softly,
I hope you find
That each step
sends
My dear, a
let up
From your
prowling all the time
Now, won't
you let the body of our love
Rest in peace
By all that's
sacred up above
What we had
is dead and buried
And I'm begging
on my knees
Don't resurrect
our love
Yes, what we
had is dead and buried
And I'm begging
on my knees
Don't resurrect
our love
No, don't
resurrect our love
No don't resurrect
our love
