Love Don'T Die

She stumbles through the graveyard
And sits beside his stone
An empty soul broken and lost
A million miles alone

She comes by every single night
Just to sit and pass the day
She just can't stand being apart
For her lover passed away

She doesn't bring him flowers
She just sits alone and cries
You can hear her weeping late at night
Beneath the moonlit skies

He stumbles through the graveyard
And sits beside her stone
He just can't stand being apart
The only love he'd ever known

Buried apart, they walk each night
To sit by the others side
It's been that way for twenty-five years
Since the night when they both died
