Lyrics

They're taking me down, my friend
As they usher me off to my end
Will I bid you adieu, or I'll be seeing you soon?
If what they say around here is true
Then we'll meet again, me and you

My time is at hand, my dove
They're gonna pass me to that house above
Is Heaven just for victims, dear?
Where only those in pain go?
Well, it takes two to tango
We will meet again, my love, I know

If you're in Heaven then you'll forgive me, dear
'Cause that's what they do up there
If you're in Hell, what can I say?
You probably deserved in anyway
Guess I'm gonna find out any day for we'll meet again
There'll be Hell to pay

Your face comes to me from the depths, dear
Your silent mouth mouths, 'Yes, dear"
Dark red and big with blood
They're gonna shut me down, my love
They're gonna launch me into the stars
Well, all things come to pass
Glory hallelujah

This prayer is for you, my love
Sent on the wings of a dove
An idiot prayer of empty words
Love, dear, is strictly for the birds
We each get what we deserve
My little snow white dove
Rest assured
