PJ Harvey Memphis lyrics

You're breathing in my mouth
I'll take it, I'll take it for you
You wanna sing, then sing it through me
You've got something left to say

Untie me, we're taking away
Unlikely, out if time
When you still got so much to say
Well, I'll write it, a song for you

But oh, what a way to go
So peaceful, you're smiling
Oh, what a way to go
I'm with you, I'm singing

You said there's a special place
And it's scaring the shit out of me
In Memphis on Valentine's Day
You wrote it in a letter to me

Well, I wish I had given you more time
To say thank you, my beautiful friend
But sometimes you gotta send it away
To bring it, to bring it back again


But oh, what a way to go
So peaceful, you're smiling
Oh, what a way to go
I'm with you and I'm singing

You'll always have open eyes
You'll always have a special place
In Memphis on Valentine's Day
Die suddenly at a wonderful age

Though were you ready
Were you ready to go?
When you still got so much to say
Somehow I know you're driving slow
Receiving just everything

But oh, what a way to go
So peaceful, you're smiling
Oh, what a way to go
I'm know that you're smiling

You're peaceful, you're smiling
