[Chorus]

And in a state of deep decay

Your flesh, it rots away

But I still can't accept that you have died

I know that I should bury you

Can't bear to let you go

'Cause I haven't got the strength to say goodbye

As I lay beside you, your body oh, so still

Believe me love, I could never do you ill

I just want to hold you, put your hands upon my flesh

Your fingers so cold, the uncertain feel of death

Only you and I know what goes on behind closed doors

And now I can do things to you I never could before

Be still, my love, as in your arms I lie

A much more faithful lover than you were before you died

And in a state of deep decay

Your flesh, it rots away

But I still can't believe that you have died

I know that I should bury you

Can't bear to let you go

'Cause I haven't got the strength to say goodbye

Lying in our bed, so peaceful, yet so cold

You will never know the joys and pain of growing old

I handle you so gently, I must not increase the loss

I live in mortal fear, that the best bits might fall off

And in a state of deep decay

Your flesh, it rots away

But I still can't accept that you have died

I know that I should bury you

Can't bear to let you go

'Cause I haven't got the strength to say goodbye

When people call to see you, I say you've gone away

Only you and I know that with me you'll always stay

If I bring home other lovers, there is nothing you will say

I know I can rely on you to stay out of the way

We never seem to argue like we used to do before

And you don't come home at 4 AM, lay drunk outside the door

And I will never find a more faithful geezer

I know when I'm out clubbing, you’re at home locked in the freezer
