| Gone For A Burton |
| (The Lilac Time – Stephen Duffy/Nick Duffy) |
Another one escapes the wilderness We're sure to follow Though lovers be lost love shall not In that we wallow Shall his death have no dominion
I made you mine The night that Richard died The newscasters cried The night that Richard died
All they could take from him was his fame They kissed it away If their honour's lost they lose their lives Should kiss them away So that I might live out this great gap of time
I made you mine The night that Richard died The newscasters cried The night that Richard died
Down in the valley It's just another nail in the stable door Of his brothers' mine The night that Richard died The newscaster cries Forgive him all their lies Forgive them for their lies Forgive them for their lies
