Lyrics:
I used to love the mortician's daughter We drew our hearts on the dusty coffin lids I grieve tonight over this letter My tears dissolve an image in the careful ink Her father stands in the open door He's waiting for her There's a storm blowing across the lake It's late summer On the broken step is a cardboard box full of wilted flowers She whispers in my burning ear It doesn't matter I used to love the mortician's daughter We rolled in the warm grass by the bone yard fence Her skin so white The first leaves falling This long forgotten night I am there again Her father stands in the open door He's waiting for her There's a ribbon printed with last respects Blowing down the gutter The rain comes in, she drops my hand, she's turning, laughing And I used to love the mortician's daughter I used to love the mortician's daughter We drew our hearts on the dusty coffin lids There's a lonely dove out on the telephone wire I turn my head and she flies away
