Lunger's Lament Lyrics

I had a dream

You were with a stranger

He was wearing black tie, black suit

He laid your sweet head

On a luxury bed

In the center of a parlour room

Put a blush on your cheek

Let your hair down nice and neat

He did it by the light of the moon

And we were drinking suds

In a dirty little pub

And baby, we were singing your tune

Another dream

And Mother, what a scene

And here come another strange dude

Telling stories

About your losses and your glories

It was no one I knew

Soon outside the church

You'd be one with the earth

While I cried in the vestibule

We hung around

With our heads hanging down

And baby, we were singing your tune

I awoke

Early in the morning

Sheets strewn across the stair

You were gone

Without any warning

And I couldn't find you nowhere

I swam to you across an ocean

But you was drowning in a swimming pool

Should you care

To come up for air

Baby, I'll be singing your tune

Should you care

To come up for air

Baby, I'll be singing your tune

Should you care

To come up for air

Baby, I'll be singing your tune
