Don't Our Love Look Natural

(album: A Hard Act To Follow - 1984)

We're gathered in this room today to say our last goodbye
Friends and kinfolk stayed away, it's down to you and I
It's just a simple service
And much too late to say
Those tender words unspoken yesterday

But don't our love look natural lying there
You could almost expect it to get right up and care.
It faded in its prime and died before its time
Now don't our love look natural lying there?

I know the day our love was born but I don't know when it died
I think we could've saved it but it seems nobody tried
And love like time can slip away and vanish with the dawn
And you can't bring it back Lord when it's gone

But don't our love look natural lying there
You could almost expect it to get right up and care.
It faded in its prime and died before its time
Now don't our love look natural lying there?
