Before you wake and find a chill within your bones Under a fine canopy of lover's dust and humorous bones Banish all dismay, extinguish every sorrow   Eternity stinks, my darling, that's no joke Don't waste your precious time pretending you're heartbroken There will be tears and candles, pretty words to say Spare me lily-white lily with the awful perfume of decay   Banish all dismay, extinguish every sorrow If I'm lost or I'm forgiven, the birds will still be singing   It's so hard to tear myself away Even when you know it's over It's too much to say   Banish all dismay, extinguish every sorrow If I'm lost or I'm forgiven, the birds will still be singing
