Intro:
We hereby conduct this post-mortem
He was a hothouse flower
To my outdoorsman
Our maladies were such we
Could not cure them
And so a touch that was my
Birthright became foreign
Come one, come all
It's happenin' again
The empathetic hunger descends
We'll tell no one
Except all of our friends
We must know
How did it end?‎
Bridge:
We were blind to unforeseen
Circumstances
We learned the right steps
To different dances
And fell victim to interlopers'‎
Glances
Lost the game of chance
What are the chances?‎
Soon they'll go home to their
Husbands
Smug 'cause they know they
Can trust him
Then feverishly calling their
Cousins
Guess who we ran into at the shops?‎
Walking in circles like
She was lost
Didn't you hear?‎
They called it all off
One gasp and then
How did it end?‎
Bridge:
Say it once again with feeling
How the death rattle breathing
Silenced as the soul was leaving
The deflation of our dreaming
Leaving me bereft and reeling
My beloved ghost and me
Sitting in a tree
D-Y-I-N-G
It's happenin' again
How did it end?‎
I can't pretend
Like I understand
How did it end?‎
Come one, come all
It's happenin' again
The empathetic hunger descends
We'll tell no one
Except all of our friends
We must know
How did it end?‎
