A Memory's Lament Lyrics


Reuben & The Dark A Memory's Lament

[Verse 1]
I wrote a song for the ones that I remember
A memory's lament; all the lovers all I have met
I wrote a song for the ones that I forget
And take these dreams from me
I don't need an easy way, now
They're just draggin' my body 'round

[Chorus]
Well I buried my brother
I buried my lover
I buried my head in my hands
And you said
All of my burdens are
Too much to bear
Ran your fingers through my hair
When I wanted you to stay with me

[Verse 2]
Well, you come from the forest, I bet
Hair as long as a sunset
And you come from the forest, I bet
With a soul as good as a hunter's gets

And I was younger than you
But I saw through these wicked ways
It's another bill that time will pay

[Chorus]
Well I buried my brother
I buried my lover
I buried my head in my hands

And you said
All of my burdens are
Too much to bear
Ran your fingers through my hair
When I wanted you to stay with me
Who knew you'd be leaving me for...
Well I buried my brother
I buried my lover
I buried my head in my hands

And you said
All of my burdens are
Too much to bear
Ran your fingers through my hair
When I wanted you to stay with me
Who knew you'd be leaving me for dead?
