The Body Lyrics

I could've stayed forever

But we all run out of time

Will I yearn for one more moment

When the light leaves from my eyes

It all feels so unimportant

It's a comfort to my mind

I just wanted to share with you

All the small delights of life

When I found the body

I knew that you were gone

You looked just like an angel

and you were all alone

I knew that you were happy,

you waited for so long

When I found the body

I knew that you were gone

A blossom born this morning

will die this very night

Never knowing that its beauty

Lives forever in my eyes

The body is a mirror

For the mind's reflected light

If time is so uncaring

Is it ever on my side

When I found the body

I knew that you were gone

You looked just like an angel

Though you were just skin and bones

I knew that you were happy

You waited for so long

When I found the body

I knew that you were gone

I knew that you were happy

When I found the body

I knew that you were gone
