The Birds Will Still Be Singing Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Summertime withers as the sun descends
He wants to kiss you, will you condescend?
Before you wake and find a chill within your bones
Under a fine canopy of lover's dust and humourous bones

[Chorus]
Banish all dismay
Extinguish every sorrow

[Verse 2]
Eternity stinks, my darling, that's no joke
Don't waste your precious time pretending you're heartbroken
There will be tears and candles, pretty words to say
Spare me the lily-white lily with the awful perfume of decay

[Chorus]
Banish all dismay
Extinguish every sorrow
If I'm lost or I'm forgiven
The birds will still be singing

[Bridge]
It's so hard to tear myself away
Even when you know it's over
It's too much to say

[Chorus]
Banish all dismay
Extinguish every sorrow
If I'm lost or I'm forgiven
The birds will still be singing

The final letter is also delivered from a place beyond death, although the intention is not at all morbid. So it is a song of condolence and renewal, ‘The Birds Will Still Be Singing,’ which brings The Juliet Letters to, what I believe is, a hopeful conclusion.
