Missy Higgins – Cemetery lyrics
I believe I did everything I could
I believe I did everything by the book
I believe I did lose the fight, lose the fight

Cause it wasn’t enough to give you everything
Was not enough to let you deeply in
I ran through dark city streets to hold you through the night

But where’d you end up now
Do we even still live in the same town?
Do you ever think about that time
We snuck into the cemetery at night?
Oh where’d you end up, tell
Do you still have a hole your heart as well?
And do you ever think about that time
We snuck into the cemetery at night?

Get out, get out get out of my mind
Get out get out get out of my mind
I want to forget that night

Cause laying upon the dead with you
Laying upon the dead with you, my love
I’ve never felt so alive

I believe I gave everything I had
I believe I lost what you never gave back
I believe I did lose my mind, lose my mind

Cause it wasn’t enough to let you call the shots
Was not enough just letting you be lost
I fell through hell every time you disappeared, cause I loved you still

But where’d you end up now
Do we even live in the same town?
Do you ever think about that time
We snuck into the cemetery at night?
Oh where’d you end up, tell
Do you have a hole your heart as well?
And do you ever think about that time
We snuck into the cemetery at night?

Get out, get out get out of my mind
Get out get out get out of my mind
I want to forget that night

Cause laying upon the dead with you
Laying upon the dead with you, my love
I’ve never felt so alive

I’ve never felt so alive
I’ve never felt so alive
I’ve never felt so alive

Now all the scars have finally faded, I realise
Since then I’ve never felt so alive
