Cover Me With Flowers

Hold your head up sonny boy
 Let the earth dry on it
 It won't hurt you
 It won't hurt you
 Tell me something sonny boy
 Baptised and plunged
 Is it worth it?
 It must be worth it
 Hold your head up sonny boy
 Let the earth dry on it
 It won't hurt you
 It won't hurt you
 Let's renew the promise
 Break our wings upon it
 If in peace there's power
 Cover me with flowers
 Tie your shoelace little girl
 Time is waiting on it
 And when it's over
 And when it's over...?
 I can offer nothing
 This nothing's everlasting
 I could be Shiva lying
 Beneath ferocious darkness
 My heart's devoured
 Cover me with flowers
 Let me see the face
 Of all enduring grace
 Let me take a crack at
 All that matters
 And in the weightless hours
 Cover me with flowers
 Cover me with flowers
