If you were to die (a song)

If you were to die (a song)

A Poem by Jay Levon

If you were to die
I'd carve a harp from your bones
so that you would live on
within my sad songs
If you were to die

If I were to die
put coins over my eyes
to pay the ferrymans price
into the after life
If I were to die

We shall carry on from this life to the next
It only makes sense
my love

If we were to die
let them bury us in stone
make alters from our bones
to the ghost of lovers gone
If we were to die
