All Dead, All Dead

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

She came without a farthing

A babe without a name

So much ado about nothing

Is what she'd try to say

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
