Paroles de When i was dead

When i was dead i wore a strong perfume
When i was dead i never left the room
And i saw the aapples hanging like moments in the orchard
But falling into action, the moment soon is over-no returns
When i was dead i wasn't interested in sex
I didn't even care what happened next
I was free as a penny whistle, and silent as the glove
I wasn't me to speak of, just a thousand ancient feelings
That vanished into nothing-and love
When i was dead somebody took my hand
I couldn't see his face i took his hand
And the devil asked me to supper-he said, "careful with the spoons!"
And god said, "oh, ignore him! i've got all your albums."
I said, "yes, but who's got all the tunes?"
When i was dead
