Death in the Family Lyrics by Mogg/Way

Chocolate Box

0

Are rainbows falling into your skies
Do the planets turn and collapse and die
I'm past dreaming hope has a tear
Shadow men are calling here, and they're all going somewhere
Twist and dance away, some crazy bossa nova that holds you in its sway
You had tea and sympathy but you like sipping more
One big glass of reality and you can't close the door
Man you left us laughing with a smile upon your face
Disappear in pages into space
They're all going somewhere, twist and dance away
Some crazy bossa nova holds you tight in its sway
Stop the traffic stop the clock, An avalanche, yeah, I'm in shock
Feel the waves flow over me, there's a death in the family
Lock the Sun, put time on hold
The light is out
And the worlds gone cold
Feel the waves roll over me
There's a death in the family
The music is all over now, there's a gathering by the door
This jig is not yet finished, the band will play some more
I looked up at St. Peter and I held my baby's hand
In her eyes she didn't understand
We're all going somewhere, into eternity
Nothing else matters now, it's a death in the family
Oh!
Stop the traffic, stop the clock
An avalanche, yeah, I'm in shock
Feeling the waves roll over me, there's a death in the family
Lock the Sun, put time on hold
A light is out and the world's gone cold
Feel the waves roll easily, there's a death in the family
Stop the traffic, stop the clock
An avalanche, yeah I'm in shock
Feel the waves roll over me, there's a death in the family
Lock the Sun put time on hold
A light is out and the world's tuned cold
Feel the waves roll over me, there's a death in the family
Stop the traffic, stop the clock
An avalanche, yeah, I'm in shock
Feel the waves roll over me
There's a death in the family
