Grieving Songtext
von Leith Ross

I never will stop grieving
Who we are when we are young
For my grandmother, her children
And who I never will become
For a feeling that is fading more, each day I see the sun
I never will stop grieving, grief is all I know of love

For grief is love run backwards
A great movie in reverse
And knowing how it ends
Can give another something birth
Gives another something terrible
Great roots inside the earth
That′s too late after it's gone
Is when you finally weigh its worth


Like how my mother says that funerals
Have the timing down all wrong
You say so much to a person, only after they are gone
But grief is love run backwards
So we love them better then
And we love them with forgiveness
All because we know the end

So I never will stop grieving
Everything that′s yet to die
I think I'll love after I'm dead
And I′ll grieve while I′m alive

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Hmm, mm-mm-mm

Like how my mother says that funerals
Have the timing down all wrong
You say so much to a person, only after they are gone
But grief is love run backwards
So we love them better then
And we love them with forgiveness
All because we know the end


So I never will stop grieving
Everything that's yet to die
I think I′ll love after I'm dead
And I′ll grieve while I'm alive
I think I′ll love after I'm dead
And I'll grieve while I′m alive
