Kevin Morby - The Dead They Don't Come Back Lyrics
On my way to work
I noticed that
I passed a cemetery
Oh lord I held my breath
Dead they don't come back
Dead they don't, dead they don't, dead they don't come back
And on my way to school
I passed that old graveyard
Life is mighty lonely
And life is mighty hard
Dead they don't wake up
Dead they don't wake up
Dead they don't, dead they don't, dead they don't wake up
Measure the distance in time
I can see your teardrops
Behind that black black veil
Made me hope for heaven
And me scared for hell
Dead they all will sleep
Dead they all will sleep
Dead they all, the dead they all, the dead they all will sleep
And from time to time
I think about my grave
When I'm gonna have one
And what's it gonna say
It feels good to rest
It's been a long long day
It's been a long, it's been a long, it's been a long long day
Oh I am on a ride
Measure the distance in time
And as sure as I was born
I will die
And on my way back home
Stopped at your tombstone
Said a prayer for you
I was tired and alone
Said lord I miss my friend
Who's underneath my feet
May her soul, oh may her soul, oh may her soul rest in peace
