Right about now the mid day sun
Is beating down on me
Out there there ain't a single cloud in the southern sky
Here in my heart
It's as cold as any wintry sea
She said how long's eternity
I said as long as time may be
In the white white light there's a big black bird
He's staring down at me
Out there for me there ain't a hope in hell
Here in my heart
It's as dark as a cup of Joe should be
She said how long's eternity
I said long enough for you and me
Here in my heart
It's as hard as any stone can be
The only thing that can bring her back
Is the symmetery of the cemetery
Here in my heart
It's as cold as any wintry sea
She said how long's eternity
I said as long as time may be
Here in my heart
It's as hard as any stone can be
The only thing that can bring her back
Is the symmetery of the cemetery
