The Mortician's Daughter

I open my lungs dear

I sing this song at funerals... no rush.

These lyrics heard a thousand times, just plush.

Baby boy you've held so tightly,

This pain it visits almost nightly

Missing hotel beds, I feel your touch.

I will await dear, a patience of eternity, my crush.

A universal still.

No rust.

No dust will ever grow on this frame,

One million years, and I will say your name.

I love you more than I can ever scream.

We booked our flight those years ago,

I said, "I love you, " as I left you.

Regrets still haunt my hollow head,

But I promised you I will see you again, again.

I sit here and smile dear.

I smile because I think of you and I blush.

These bleeding hollow dials... this fuss.

A fuss is made of miles and travels

When roadways are but stones and gravel.

A bleeding heart can conquer every crush.

We booked our flight those years ago

You said you loved me as you left me.

Regrets still haunt your saddened head,

But I promised you that I will see you,

We booked our flight those years ago

I said I loved you as I left you

Regret's no longer in my head,

But I promised you and now

I'm home again, again, again, I'm home again, again, again.

I'm home again.
