Bones Lyrics

Well I picked up the phone

What felt like half past three

It was my father's voice

Not how it used to be

And he told of the news

And the angels that night

That came down from the heavens

And took Jack out of sight

And I wept like a child

Albeit I was drunk

And I fell to me knees

And the tibia went

But the bones will mend

And the bones will mend

Yeah the bones will mend

But I'll never see Jack again

No I'll never see Jack again

And I said to the ghost

As he passed through that night

The questions of feeling and

The meaning of lives

That are taken so sudden

Were you just passing by

Or were you just that lonely

You needed Jack in your life

But he spoke no words

But what words could be spoke

He just tapped on my leg

And I knew it was broke

But the bones will mend

And the bones will mend

Yeah the bones will mend

But I'll never see Jack again

No I'll never see Jack again
