this is a song for a boy
who i thought was a god
but he´s dead, so i guess
he´s not immortal after all

this is a song to remember
every moment spent together
in the bath or under covers
this is a song for my lover

i´ll be talking with my father
and you´ll be walking into water
i´ll be sitting down to dinner
and you´ll be floating down the river

i´ll be singing in the shower
and you´ll be fertilizing flowers
i´ll be sleeping at eleven
and you´ll be looking down from heaven

and it´s so lonely being in love with you
it´s so lonely being in love with you
it´s so lonely being in love with you

did you ever say, ¡°that´ll be the day when i die¡±?
did you ever say, ¡°that´ll be the day when i die¡±?
did you ever say, ¡°that´ll be the day when i die¡±?
did you ever say, ¡°that´ll be the day when i die¡±?

i´ll be talking with my father
and you´ll be walking into water
i´ll be sitting down to dinner
and you´ll be floating down the river

i´ll be singing in the shower
and you´ll be fertilizing flowers
i´ll be sleeping at eleven
and you´ll be looking down from heaven
