π Lyrics
I was strollin' one day in a lonely graveyard
When a voice from the tomb seemed to say:
"I once lived as you live
Walked and talked as you talk
But from earth I was soon called away"
Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful, heavenly home
Every voice from the tomb seemed to whisper and say:
"Livin' man, you must soon follow me"
Then I thought as I gazed on that cold marble slab
"What a sad, lonely place that must be"
Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful, heavenly home
I then came to the place where my mother did lay
And her voice, soft and low, from the tomb
It said, "Son, I'm at rest with the Savior above
I am safe in my heavenly home"
Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful, heavenly home
Thank you, boys, for a fine song
When a voice from the tomb seemed to say:
"I once lived as you live
Walked and talked as you talk
But from earth I was soon called away"
Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful, heavenly home
Every voice from the tomb seemed to whisper and say:
"Livin' man, you must soon follow me"
Then I thought as I gazed on that cold marble slab
"What a sad, lonely place that must be"
Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful, heavenly home
I then came to the place where my mother did lay
And her voice, soft and low, from the tomb
It said, "Son, I'm at rest with the Savior above
I am safe in my heavenly home"
Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful, heavenly home
Thank you, boys, for a fine song
