The Anniversary

The Anniversary - The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter

The muscle and bone, they encase my heart
But never touch my soul
'Cause I'll save that for water around its shore
Fear makes friends with joy

And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget
How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath
And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget
How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath
And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget
How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath
And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget
How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath

The flesh and the blood they keep my body warm
Still my mind is cold
To know what's fair is not always clear
What proves true never be

And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget
How that black dress fell upon your white neck
Grand Isle rests quiet this time of year
And I know you will be leaving soon, my dear
