|
They say I don't think enough |
|
About the afterlife |
|
Of what's below and above |
|
It's all in black and white |
|
They say there's only one kind of love |
|
You have to choose just right |
|
They say there's only one kind of love |
|
In the afterlife |
|
Kiss it all goodbye |
|
In the afterlife |
|
You don't get another try |
|
But I can't see, |
|
I don't know how |
|
That I won't be what |
|
I am now, no |
|
Even in my afterlife |
|
And I won't have some other heart |
|
That could find peace |
|
Though we're apart, no |
|
Even in my afterlife |
|
It's not enough anymore |
|
To be good in this life |
|
They say you've got to be sure |
|
So you can sleep at night |
|
The only love that endures |
|
Gives up without a fight |
|
The only love that endures |
|
In the afterlife |
|
Kiss it all goodbye |
|
In the afterlife |
|
It was just a clever lie |
|
If I could never see your face |
|
Then I would have to fall |
|
From grace, |
|
I know Even in my afterlife |
|
Or for eternity be blind |
|
To your presence in my mind, no |
|
Even in my afterlife |
|
And they could promise me a seat |
|
At the right side of the throne |
|
But all would still be incomplete |
|
Within the holy host, alone |
|
Without the guiding light so sweet |
|
That has forever led me on |
|
For me there's no eternal rest |
|
You and I have unfinished business |
|
Yes, yes Even in my afterlife |
|
If I could still hold one thought clear |
|
Then you will instantly appear, |
|
I know Even in my afterlife |
|
But I can't see, |
|
I don't know how |
|
That I won't be what |
|
I am now, no |
|
Even in my afterlife |
|
And I won't have some other heart |
|
That could find peace |
|
Though we're apart, no |
|
Even in my afterlife |
|
For I could not repose in bliss |
|
Nevermore to know your kiss |
|
No, no |
