​rocking chair

[Verse 1]
Send my body down the river
With my baby close behind
All I promised her was loving
Seems we just ran out of time

[Verse 2]
Hold my head up by the oak tree
With my baby close behind
Winter's coming like the devil
Seek thy heart and thee will find

[Chorus]
Darling death your hands are warm with peace
Lovers to the end of every street, oh oh

[Verse 3]
Like that rocking chair I made her
Summer's come and gone at last
Breathe, now, deep, my golden blossom
We can lay her down to rest

[Bridge]
Curl up close to me, Victoria
Use my body as a shield
As we float on down the river
I'm as dead as I am real, oh
Curl up close to me, Victoria
Use my body as a shield
As we float on down the river
I'm as dead as I am real

[Chorus]
Darling death your hands are warm with peace
Lovers to the end of every street
