Will I Lay Beside You (Live) Lyrics

Down by the old graveyard

Barefoot we'd walk all around

Scared not of the ghosts for

Flowers we'd plant in the ground

Next to the headstones of

Parents and lovers and friends

More children than children

All grown who have stopped visiting

And we loved

And were loved

And the summer sighed

And gave up her children

I read you books who's

Bindings were worn and well known

You twirled in skirts who's

Fabrics held hues from the loam

Byzantium called us to

Never no never grow old

And us being children

Always did just as were told

And we loved

And were loved

And the summer sighed

And gave up her children

You've picked your plot you say

Where forever you'll want to lay

And I wonder throughout these days

Will I lay beside you always

Will I lay beside you always

Will I lay beside you always

Will I lay beside you always
