Tears for Fears - Famous Last Words Lyrics

Artist: Tears for Fears

Album: The Seeds Of Love

  • Songwriters: Nicky Holland, Roland Orzabal

After the wash
Before the fire
I will decay
Melt in your arms

As the day hits the night
We will sit by candlelight
We will laugh, we will sing
When the saints go marching in

A for a heart
B for a brain
Insects and grass
Are all that remain

When the light from above
Burns a hole straight through our love
We will laugh, we will sing
When the saints go marching in
And we will carry war, no more

All our love and all our of pain
Will be but a tune
The sun and the moon
The wind and the rain

Hand in hand we'll do and die
Listening to the band that made us cry
We'll have nothing to lose, we'll have nothing to gain
Just to stay this real life situation for one last refrain

As the day hits the night
We will sit by candlelight
We will laugh, we will sing
When the saints go marching in
And we will carry war, no more
