Death of an Englishman

Well I'm an Englishman born I'm an Englishman bred And on the day that I die I'll be an Englishman dead Closed eye watching on as she sleeps And I'd kill half the World to plant a kiss upon that cheek Too stubborn for love and too proud to talk There's a stone on a beach with a message in chalk On the stone there's a list of the things I wished I said But the salt washed it off just before it was read Don't leave us Don't leave us Don't leave us Don't leave us Well May was the month that it all came too soon Sat off in the grass napping on in the noon Reciting promises I knew I could not keep Felt so close to hell the ground was burning my feet Another night spent on a cold tile floor Not the prettiest site I bet you ever saw But your heart still went out to that old crumpled mess And watching on as he slept brought an ache into your chest Don't leave us Don't leave us Don't leave us Don't leave us Hey With your rose coloured lips all chapped from the night And the air in the room it still sweats from the fight Oh there's glass on the floor and there's wine on the couch And there's blood on our cheeks from where we clashed our mouths Don't leave us Don't leave us Don't leave us Don't leave us
