Bury my heart separately
It's something that don't belong to me
Like Mary did Percy's
Now do this for me
Bury my heart separately

He was a bleeder by '78
Letter to Carter
Squared by the straight
I was the lucky one
I bloom late, I bloom late

He was a black heart in '78
He was in danger and quarter and grey
I followed everywhere
On my own, on my own

Bury my heart separately
It's something that don't belong to me
Like Mary did Percy's
Now do this for me
Bury my heart separately

In the blizzard of '78
You could fall out of our window
And skate all the way to the creamery
It was bitter, it was grey

Bury my heart separately
It's something that don't belong to me
Like Mary did Percy's
Do this for me
Bury my heart separately
Bury my heart separately
It's something that don't belong to me
Like Mary did Percy's
Will you do this for me?
Bury my heart separately
Bury my heart separately
Bury my heart separately
It's something that don't belong to me
Bury my heart separately
Bury my heart...
