lyrics

Stand in black

And in the mourning
Fresh faced and new
The loss of your love
Will slowly come through
You gotta stand up
Like the man that you are
Cause it's only you now
Leading the choir

And I will stand
In black beside you
Cause for all of my love
That's all I can do
I will stand
In black beside you
Cause for all of my love
That's all I can do

And in the morning
Breakfast at noon
Noone will know
Just what they can do
And in the mourning
Drinks and remarks
Do good to conceal
All those broken hearts
Better bite that tongue man
Hold back all that you can
Cause you say to yourself
It won't fix anything
And your eyes are clear gloss
As the sermon rolls in
Though your heart is pumping
You just can't give in

And I will stand
In black beside you
Cause for all of my love
That's all I can do
I will stand
In black beside you
Cause for all of my love
That's all I can do

And in the mourning
Fresh faced and new
The loss of your love
Will slowly come through
And in the morning
