May The Living Be Dead Lyrics - Singles - Flogging Molly

Said her name was Marie From the banks of the Lee 

With the prettiest eyes my own had ever seen 

Her hair like ripples They danced with the tide 

As our hearts washed away to the sea 

Was she sent down from the heavens above 

Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love 

Now the devil is courtin' a different tune 

And I laugh as the tears was the rain 

 

Tell me why no one's listenin' 

Is there nothing at all left to say 

In a world so unforgiving 

You mean more to me each every day 

So may the living be dead in our wake 

 

One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide 

And the ghost of our souls thanking Christ we're alive 

Our spirits they crackled with lovers first sight 

Till the mornin' came fresh with a new 

Will you dance with me now heavens child sang the clown 

We've nothing left to lose but your wings and my frown 

Where over the hills the valleys will ring 

To the sound of our love singin' true 

 

So tell me why no one's listenin' 

Is there nothing at all left to say 

In a world so unforgiving 

You mean more to me each every day 

So may the living be dead in our wake 

 

But the summer sun is melting now 

With the leaves I'll soon be gone 

Will you have the strength when the emptiness shadows fall 

Or will your aching heart be ripped apart 

By the beating from the storm 

Or will howling gales like yesterdays be gone 

Yeah be gone, gone 

 

Was she sent down from the heavens above 

Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love 

Now the devil is courtin' a different tune 

And I laugh as the tears was the rain 

 

Tell me why no one's listenin' 

Is there nothing at all left to say 

In a world so unforgiving 

You mean more to me each every day 

So may the living be dead in our wake 

 

Tell me why no one's listenin' 

Is there nothing at all left to say 

In a world so unforgiving 

You mean more to me each every day 

So may the living be dead in our wake
