Vava Quail - Beloved Ashes

Here I played the saxophone
The football fields, the showers
Here I thought you were my friend
Where now you're washing bodies

And here's the stairs where I performed
A sad and funny show
Here's the place where normally
Your car would be for Christmas

And here is where we said goodbye
To beloved ashes
Where someone put a rainbow flag
On your tiny grave

Here is where we said goodbye
To beloved ashes
Where someone put a rainbow flag
On your tiny grave

An exhibitionist opened his coat
And revealed what he said was his friend
All these strange memories

Or was it all in my dreams
All those stories, those pictures
Escape me at day but haunt me at night

An old man walking his dog
And the smell of the street
In the summer, that beautiful light

Somebody stood in the window
Observed me or so
I interpret that cold piercing look in their eyes

The marching band in the street
And the poor wooden bird they shot down
All the zombies with flutes and trombones

An angel tried to record all the moments
Of kindness, of warmth
All the heartbeats and sweet memories

They put it all on a stage
In the centre of town
A mysterious choir sang
About a hole in the ground

Here is where we said goodbye
To beloved ashes

Here is where we said goodbye
To beloved ashes
Where someone put
A rainbow flag
On your tiny grave
