Lyrics When The Mourning Comes - Christian Kjellvander

When The Mourning Comes

I could run forever, dear
And all I would read is the mirror
Empathy and sympathy are partners
Are drifters, like we
Forgotten days are heavy hands upon my chest
We can drive until daybreak and then I’ll rest
I’ll be there just to make you happy
I’ll be there just to see the sun
I’ll be there just to keep you happy
And I’ll be there when the mourning comes
Touch these days and I’ll kill you
Some words sung are as solemn as true
Surrender to the tune that’s flown
She bared all her teeth then she moaned
Cotton days are heavy hands upon your breasts
We can go until daybreak and then we’ll rest
I’ll be there just to make you happy
I’ll be there just to see the sun
I’ll be there just to keep you happy
And I’ll be there when the mourning comes
She lay there like a thousand mirrors
Reflecting only shadows
The skies are blue, it must be tears
That beat outside my window
