Lyrics The Verve Pipe

The Verve Pipe

I Want to Bury You

Love of a lifetime, though I hardly knew you

I feel you right down to the bone

You left love behind, but I think that you'll find

That I'm better than being alone

When we were innocent children

Back when the fever ran through

Nonsense spoken, until fevers were broken

Then I was the boy you out grew

And I should have buried you

Buried you off in the deep

And I should have buried you

Body and soul to keep, for my tresure

I know your darkness, and we share a secret

I'll happily take to my grave

While other who fumbled

With buttons in backseats

The sweat of your love being brave

We were just innocent children

The urges defy common sense

Come back to me love

Because I'm worthy of

And I haven't been the same since

And I should have buried you

Buried you off in the deep

And I should have buried you

Body and soul to keep, for my tresure

And I want to bury you

Bury you off in the deep

And I should have buried you

Body and soul to keep

And I want to bury you

Body and soul to keep

And say good-bye

Because I'm going to bury you

Body and soul to keep, for my tresure
