I hear that death sound, baby,
Oh, like an echo in my brain.
I hear that death sound, baby,
Oh, like an echo in my brain, brain.
Well, there`s a part of us dying,
You know that things will never be the same,
Ah, never be the same!
I feel the black nails a-poundin` now,
Yes, into the coffin of our love.
Hear the black nails a-poundin` now,
Yes, into the coffin of our love.
Well, like a black shrouded hunter now,
Don`t you know that I have killed a snow white dove,
Oh, I`ve killed the dove.
Well, the time sands keep a-fallin` now
On towards our ending day.
Yeah, the time sands keep a-fallin`
Towards our ending day.
I see the minutes chasing the hours,
Yes, to the words that we should say,
Ah we should say.
