Yaz - And On Lyrics
Your mother was cryingYour father passed her a handkerchiefTheir tear-stained facesLooked to mine for a sign of griefA thousand raincoatsAlways stand around too longBut I stayed to talk with youAfter they had gone.The flowers I brought youWere beginning to fade under the heavy rainYour name on the card had runSo I tried in vain to write it againThey didnt understand you - no!They didnt even tryIm so glad that you left us nowBefore you had the chance to die.I sat there for a long time,Expecting to turn and see you thereI ran my fingers through the long grassWilling it to turn into your hair - and ohIm gonna miss you, dearBut I dont have to cryIm so glad that you left us now,Before you had the chance to dieAnd oh, Im going to miss you dear,But Im not going to cryIm so glad that your life stopped now,Before it had the chance to die.
