[intro]
I look at the stars
I soon wonder this
I cant see you, but can you see me lord?
Shining above me
I can't see you, can you see me, lord?

I look at the sun
I wonder God are you there?
Watching us all, lying in despair
I watch the stars and I wanted to know
Is he up above taking care of us all?

I look at the mountains and when they were built
Were they by the hands of some heavenly guild

I don't believe, I can't understand
I don't believe that you're watching me

And am I your dream or are you mine?
Or am I your dream or are you mine?

Am I your hope or are you mine?
Am I your dream or are you mine?
Gravedigger
main lyrics
Cyrus Jones, 1810–1913
made his great-grandchildren believe you could live to a hundred and three
a hundred and three is forever when you're just a little kid
so Cyrus Jones lived forever

Gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
gravedigger

Muriel Stonewall, 1903–1954
she lost both of her babies in the Second Great War
now, you should never have to watch as your only children are lowered in the ground
I mean, never have to bury your own babies

Gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
gravedigger

Ring around the rosey
pocketful of posies
ashes to ashes
we all fall down

Gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
oh, gravedigger

Little Mikey Carson, '67–'75
he rode his bike like the devil until the day he died
when he grows up he wants to be Mr. Vertigo on the flying trapeze
oh, 1940–1992

Gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
oh, gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain, I can feel the rain, I can feel the rain?
gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
gravedigger
