WOODS OF YPRES - I Was Buried In Mount Pleasant Cemetery lyrics
rate meI was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, alone and unceremoniously<br />
... Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, when life was taken from me<br />
<br />
Our tree was full and green, I had to leave it<br />
The sadness was overwhelming, <br />
To be alone beneath it<br />
<br />
The sun came down hot and hard, I could never sleep<br />
To disappear was the only way I could find relief<br />
<br />
When I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, alone and un-Sarah-moniously<br />
... Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, when life was taken so suddenly<br />
<br />
First I paid my respects to Glenn Gould<br />
Then I visited the grave of Alexander Muir<br />
Next to Eaton's tomb, I hung my head and cried<br />
Looking for Joseph Mulgrew, I gave up and died<br />
<br />
When I was buried... <br />
<br />
The birds sang, the flowers in bloom, spring had just begun<br />
Recently fitted for a suit, now lying in a box<br />
By summer, I was gone, my remains stolen from the ground<br />
My body never recovered and I was never found<br />
... Until now<br />
<br />
I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, alone and unceremoniously<br />
<br />
Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, between the monuments and trees<br />
At the heart of the city, Amongst the statues and fountains<br />
New life could begin, where the old path I ran came to and end<br />
<br />

<br />
I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, alone and unceremoniously<br />
... Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, when life was taken from me
