Lirik Lagu Funeral - Ashe
Caught me in the middle of a real landslide
Middle of a real long night
It was dark on the steps of the balcony talking to you
I could see the softness in your big brown eyes
Felt safe for the very first time
It was crowded and loud, but it felt like just us in the room
Just us two
Thought I'd never have it
Fated for dancing around it
So almost forgot about it
Until I finally found it, yeah
I met the beginning and the end
My forever, now and then
You'll be my Tuesday night and my Sunday drive
And the wedding, the wedding
Now somehow, every normal day's unusual
Every storm and rain is beautiful
You'll be my Tuesday night and my Sunday drive
And the last speech at my funeral
Now I call you just to hear your voice
You're the only one who calms the noise
In the tornado warnings, you're up 'til the morning is bright
Holding me tight
Thought I'd never have it
Was always lost and distracted
From love I couldn't imagine
Until it finally happened, yeah
I met the beginning and the end
My forever, now and then
You'll be my Tuesday night and my Sunday drive
And the wedding, the wedding
Now somehow, every normal day's unusual
Every storm and rain is beautiful
You'll be my Tuesday night and my Sunday drive
And the last speech at my funeral
(Woah-woah-ooh)
(Doo-doo-doo)
Oh-oh
(Doo-doo-doo) You're the last speech at—
So make it good, tell 'em about how we met
Tell 'em I haven't a regret about you
The best thing I ever did was loving you, loving you
Make it long, tell 'em every story and every song
Say I found who I belong to
And the best thing I ever did was loving you
I met the beginning and the end
And I'd do it all again
Every Tuesday night, every Sunday drive
And the wedding, the wedding
Now somehow, every normal day's unusual
Every storm and rain is beautiful
You'll be my Tuesday night and my Sunday drive
And the last speech at my funeral
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)
You'll be my Tuesday night and my Sunday drive (Oh-oh-oh)
And the last speech at my funeral
