Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/800644
Verse 1: Lee Bozeman
The key turns once
Locks the door
You, you were here
I saw your signature
I saw the moving leaves
I saw the closing door
I saw the closing door

Verse 2: Lee Bozeman
Now the priest has called
Dressed in his robes
Memory eternal
Over the telephone
But I'll have no condolences
The meaning of it all
The meaning of it all

Chorus: Lee Bozeman
When I was alive
Thoughtful and nice
I tried to do what's right

Jamey Bozeman
When I was alive
Not once but twice
Should have used a knife
Should have used a knife

Verse 3: Lee Bozeman
I read the "Four Quartets"
"The Dry Salvages"
Wrote the words upon my wrist
Wore the clothes upon my back
A life spent in pursuit of it
A life just spent
A life just spent

Verse 4: Lee Bozeman
Now I'm here on parade
I'm lying in state
The flags are all half-raised
"Ave Maria" plays
It's a fading song
Sing it on and on
Sing it on and on

Chorus: Lee Bozeman
When I was alive
Thoughtful and nice
I tried to do what's right

Jamey Bozeman
When I was alive
Not once but twice
Should have used a knife
Should have used a knife
