suzanne vega - tombstone (acoustic version) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i like a tombstone ’cause it
weathers well
and if it stands or if it crumbles
only time will tell
and you can carve my name in marble
you must cut it deep
but there’ll be no dancing on the gravestone
you must let me sleep

[refrain]
and time is burning, burning, burning
’til it burns away
[verse 2]
i don’t need to see the gates of
famous men
but i do try to see the kingdom
every now and then
and if you ask me where it is, it’s on a
humble map
and you know to enter in the doorway
show your handicap

[refrain]
and time is burning, burning, burning
’til it burns away

[verse 1]
i like a tombstone ’cause it
weathers well
and if it stands or if it crumbles
only time will tell
and you can carve my name in marble
you must cut it deep
but there’ll be no dancing on the gravestone
you must let me sleep

[refrain]
and time is burning, burning, burning
’til it burns away
time is burning, burning, burning
’til it burns away
time is burning, burning, burning
’til it burns away
[outro]
burns away
burns away
