When The Mourning Comes - Christian Kjellvander

I could run forever, dear

And all I would read is the mirror

Empathy and sympathy are partners

Are drifters, like we

Forgotten days are heavy hands upon my chest

We can drive until daybreak and then I’ll rest

I’ll be there just to make you happy

I’ll be there just to see the sun

I’ll be there just to keep you happy

And I’ll be there when the mourning comes

Touch these days and I’ll kill you

Some words sung are as solemn as true

Surrender to the tune that’s flown

She bared all her teeth then she moaned

Cotton days are heavy hands upon your breasts

We can go until daybreak and then we’ll rest

I’ll be there just to make you happy

I’ll be there just to see the sun

I’ll be there just to keep you happy

And I’ll be there when the mourning comes

She lay there like a thousand mirrors

Reflecting only shadows

The skies are blue, it must be tears

That beat outside my window
