Eucharist Lyrics

I was born in poverty
But when I was about 19
I wrote a song called "Kiss Me"
And soon it was pay day
A terraced house in the country
I thought that would do for me
It seemed to be the lilac time
But when the lilac died
I went back to town and cried
I need someone who'll always love me

The day after someone dies
You wake a little less alive
Why do the wicked seem to survive
For Eucharist and song?
And we're a little more alone
In moments that they've never known
They'll never see my happy home
We see them every day
I know you want to say
We won't forget, we'll always love you

When you're young and you fall down, you're trying
When you're old and you fall down, you're dead
I am in between there and never been
Anywhere or sincere
With anyone that I've held dear

Checking in around twilight
The hotel readies for the night
I run a bath; unpack some books
On which we will embrace
You told me that your Father died
And when you buried him you cried
You're sorry and you are surprised
He died and you were born
So you don't have to mourn
You'll live your life, I'll always love you
