Never read much, but she loved to quote Love is a dead language All she offered in her parting note Love is a dead language I close my eyes and it's all I hear It rings as hollow as a high school cheer Who did you plagiarize this time, dear? Love is a dead language Outside is a twilight snow Love is a dead language Sounds romantic, but I doubt you'd know Love is a dead language One soft bullet and the rest is blurred I claw the sky like a falling bird You've done your duty You've spread the word Love is a dead language Love is a dead language Never felt anything she couldn't touch Love is a dead language Never came close, 'cause she knew too much Love is a dead language So here's to us all who were born too late And here's to the promise of a life alone You've blessed us with such comfort in knowing Love is a dead language Love is a dead language Love is a dead language Love is a dead language
