Intro

Chorus

 Only when you’re gone. Only when you’re gone

 Only when you’re gone and away, only when you’re gone

Verse 1

 Gonna need a hammer and nails

 To construct this bitter love song

 This cruel testament in song

 That rings out only when you’re gone

Chorus

Verse 2

Rude are the tongues of love that speak of mercy for us all

 That leave us only with a song

 That leave us only with a song

 Now it’s a cold and hollow whisper

 That consumes my body when you’re gone

Chorus

 And it’s only when you’re gone and away

My ghost looks (?) in that special way

 It’s a nice hotel, my hometown

Come feel the darkness of this prison cell

I love you long and I love you well

Verse 3

 So bury me in the kitchen, bury me into stone

 Oh, bury me everywhere you go

 In the shadows of the hallway

Verse 4

 A fall we do not longer know,

 What we can no longer hold

 On days like these our heads fill up with smoke

 And our memories grow old
