Long dead love lyrics

Artist  : Thompson richard 
Song : Long dead love
 
Somebody's walking, oh somebody's walking
There on the grave of our love
And somebody's kicking the dust and the ashes
away
Why don't they just let it die
And fade and grow cold again
Better our footsteps divide
And our memory grow old again

Oh long dead love
Long dead love
How much dirt must you shovel on what's already
dead
Don't send flowers to remember, send thorns
instead
And who's that polishing the tombstone over our
heads
Ohh

Somebody's dancing on our sad misfortune
Oh there on the grave of our love
And somebody's sweeping the splinters of my
broken heart away
Why don't they just let it die
And fade and grow cold again
Better our footsteps divide
And our memory grow old again

Oh long dead love
Long dead love
It's been so long it's even hard to find the
right place
Was it you who paid for Burke and Hare to come in
on the case
You know grave-robbing is a sin and this is a
crying disgrace

Deep in the night, the cruel intention comes
stealing
Deep in the night, I can't close my eyes for that
feeling

Oh long dead love
Long dead love
Long dead love
