I'm collecting people's tears
They cried because they miss you
They fill the seas and all the lakes
With memories the wind blew
I'd run out of jars before a second could pass
Didn't have enough time with you to turn the hourglass
Pictures in my head suddenly appear
Why d'you have to go away
It's all not very clear
Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
My legs are weak
Verse
When I close my eyes I see you,
The dimples in your cheeks,
I forgot to thank you for the things
Cause I didn't see you for weeks
Woke up this morning and hoped for a dream
But reality sat next to me and forced me to believe.
Knocked down too soon
Like a skittle on the lanes
The man who took the wrong stop
From life's fast moving train.
Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
Bridge
Ooooh oh Funeral Flowers
Won't make me believe
They can carry out the casket
And I'll still expect to see you
You come round tomorrow
And tell me all your news
I don't ask for much from you
Sleep to my lullaby
Only give me one more chance
To say my last goodbye
Final Chorus
Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
Goodbye sweet angel
Sail away on teary seas
Tattooed the time we had
On my memory
(Goodbye sweet angel)
(Sail away on teary seas)
(Tattooed the times we had)
(On my memory)
My legs are weak
