Lyrics
The Lonely Grave, The Grave man and the Soul,There's a tear in his eyes as he kneels down beside another lonely grave,
No flowers there, no one seems to care anymore,With a rag in his hand he wipes down the stone, he cleans the golden words, you'll never be left alone, you'll never be left alone.The Lonely Grave, The Grave man and the Soul.
He pulls out the weeds and sows flower seeds on the lonely grave, wipes the dirt from his hands and slowly he stands once again, he turns to the grave and says " I know how you're feeling but I helped you out now your souls got some healing". The Lonely Grave, The Grave man and The Soul.
The Grave Man said farewell, for he soon too fell, now he's lying there and no one seems to care, but carved deep in stone, golden words that make it right. You'll never be left alone, you'll never be left alone....
The Lonely Grave, the Grave Man and the Soul, The Lonely Grave the Grave Man and the soul....
