[Verse 1: Lee Bozeman]
The key turns once
Locks the door
You, you were here
I saw your signature
I saw the moving leaves
I saw the closing door
I saw the closing door
[Verse 2: Lee Bozeman]
Now the priest has called
Dressed in his robes
Memory eternal
Over the telephone
But I'll have no condolences
The meaning of it all
The meaning of it all
[Chorus: Lee Bozeman]
When I was alive
Thoughtful and nice
I tried to do what's right
[Jamey Bozeman]
When I was alive
Not once but twice
Should have used a knife
Should have used a knife
[Verse 3: Lee Bozeman]
I read the "Four Quartets"
"The Dry Salvages"
Wrote the words upon my wrist
Wore the clothes upon my back
A life spent in pursuit of it
A life just spent
A life just spent
[Verse 4: Lee Bozeman]
Now I'm here on parade
I'm lying in state
The flags are all half-raised
"Ave Maria" plays
It's a fading song
Sing it on and on
Sing it on and on
[Chorus: Lee Bozeman]
When I was alive
Thoughtful and nice
I tried to do what's right
[Jamey Bozeman]
When I was alive
Not once but twice
Should have used a knife
Should have used a knife
The key turns once
Locks the door
You, you were here
I saw your signature
I saw the moving leaves
I saw the closing door
I saw the closing door
[Verse 2: Lee Bozeman]
Now the priest has called
Dressed in his robes
Memory eternal
Over the telephone
But I'll have no condolences
The meaning of it all
The meaning of it all
[Chorus: Lee Bozeman]
When I was alive
Thoughtful and nice
I tried to do what's right
[Jamey Bozeman]
When I was alive
Not once but twice
Should have used a knife
Should have used a knife
[Verse 3: Lee Bozeman]
I read the "Four Quartets"
"The Dry Salvages"
Wrote the words upon my wrist
Wore the clothes upon my back
A life spent in pursuit of it
A life just spent
A life just spent
[Verse 4: Lee Bozeman]
Now I'm here on parade
I'm lying in state
The flags are all half-raised
"Ave Maria" plays
It's a fading song
Sing it on and on
Sing it on and on
[Chorus: Lee Bozeman]
When I was alive
Thoughtful and nice
I tried to do what's right
[Jamey Bozeman]
When I was alive
Not once but twice
Should have used a knife
Should have used a knife
