the other side - annabel lee lyrics

[verse 1]
the moon was her sun, never met the light of day
posted up in her boudoir ’til evening
porcelain and ink, a circle made of sand
we said the prayer and then i took her hands

[refrain]
we said what’s it like on the other side?

[verse 2]
everyone was immediately taken
by her mystery and her melancholy charms
stacking her pills at the dirty kitchen table
little armies, pyramids of baby blue

[refrain]
she said what’s it like on the other side

[verse 3]
taking a day to read up on psychedelia
skipping class ’cause boston winters last ’til may
the sweater she wore hanging on her like a sculpture
draping marble on a cactus flower frame

[chorus]
she said
larn that otis redding song
the one about his love
wrap me up in all his colors
as the smoke grazes our lungs
i wonder what the angels sing
i bet it’s rock and roll
i wanna know
[bridge]
the week you left, you asked me if we’d go and see some jazz
it’d been a while and i was so excited for our plans
i was down in texas on the road singing my songs
the morning i got back, i got the call that you were gone
i saw your mother staying strong for everyone in line
saw your lover and your father as i wiped my burning eyes

[chorus]
she said
learn that otis redding song
the one about his love
wrap me up in all his colors
as the smoke grazes our lungs
i never learned her one request
i thought i’d have more time
oh

[outro]
i’ll sing it for you on the other side
i’ll sing it for you on the other side
