Elvis Costello - Come AwayDeath lyrics

(harle/shakespeare)

Come awaycome awaydeath

And in sad cyprus let me be laid

Fie awayfie awaybreath

I am slain by a fair cruel maid

My shroud of white stuck all with you

O prepare it

My part of death no one so true

Did share it

Come awaycome awaydeath

Not a flowernot a flowersweet

On my black coffin let there be strewn

Not a friendnot a friendgreet

My poor corpse where my bones shall be thrown

A thousand thousand sighs to say

Lay me over

Sad true lover never find my grave

To weep there

Come awaycome awaydeath
