All Dead, All Dead (Raw Sessions Version) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Memories, memories
How long can you stay to haunt my days?
Twas not for talk of loving
Twas not for talk at all
So much ado about nothing
Would be her only call

So much ado, my lover
So many games we played
Through every fleeted summer
Through every precious day

[Chorus]
All dead, all dead
All the dreams we had
And I wonder why I still live on
All dead, all dead

And alone I'm spared
My sweeter half instead
All dead and gone
All dead

[Chorus]
All dead, all dead
At the rainbow's end
And still I hear her own sweet song
All dead, all dead
Take me back again
You know my little friend's
All dead and gone

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
Her ways are always with me
I wander all the while
But please, you must forgive me
I am old but still a child

[Chorus]
All dead, all dead
But I should not grieve
In time, it comes to everyone
All dead, all dead
But in hope I breathe of course, I don't believe
You're dead and gone

[Outro]
All dead and gone
