natalie merchant - because i could not stop for death lyrics

Loading...

because i could not stop for death,
he kindly stopped for me
the carriage held but just ourselves
and immortality

we slowly drove, he knew no haste,
and i had put away
my labor, and my leisure too,
for his civility

we p-ssed the school where children played
their lessons scarcely done.
we p-ssed through fields of gazing grain,
we p-ssed the setting sun, we p-ssed the setting sun.

we paused before a house that seen
a swelling of the ground
the roof was scarcely visible,
the corners were around, the corners were around.

since then ’tis centuries but each
feels shorter than the day
since i first surmised the horses’ heads
it wore eternity, it wore eternity.

because i could not stop for death,
he kindly stopped for me
the carriage held but just ourselves
and immortality

- natalie merchant
