Cortege Songtext
von Richard Lloyd

I followed him in a long black car
In a long line of cars we headed into the stars
We never played the game
We only headed on down the line
Though he always left with her
Still I know that he was mine
And I know I will never see him again
We never looked back but we never looked ahead
So it hit me like a heart attack
When I found out he was


And it was a summer day
But the leaves fell on the ground
Still the children remained at play
But they did so without a sound
And I know he will never walk there again
I know the sun turns around the earth
And they say otherwise but the truth hurts

It was a long time ago
When he ran into his mother′s arms
And she held him oh so close
And promised he would never come to harm
But I know she will never hold him again

I've come just to say goodbye, my friend
Goodbye, my friend
Goodbye, my friend
Goodbye, my friend
