The Funeral
Band of Horses Lyrics
I'm comin' up only to hold you under
And comin' up only to show you're wrong
And to know you is hard, we wonder
To know you all wrong, we won
Ooh
Ooh
Really too late to call, so we wait for
Morning to wake you, is all we got
And to know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they warn
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
At every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion, oh, one billion day funeral
I'm comin' up only to show you down for
And comin' up only to show you're wrong
To the outside, the dead leaves lay on the lawn
For they don't have trees to hang upon
Ooh
Ooh
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
At every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion, oh, one billion day funeral

Love this song! Here's the lyrics if anyone is wondering, like I was:
I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard, we wonder
To know you all wrong, we warn
Ooh, ooh
Ooh...
Really too late to call, so we wait for
Morning to wake you, it's all we got
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they warn
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
Every occasion once more
It's called the funeral
Every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion of one-billion day funeral
I'm coming up only to you show you down for
I'm coming up only to you show you wrong
To the outside, the dead leaves lay on the lawn
Before they died, they had trees to hang their hope
Ooh, ooh
Ooh...
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion once more, it's called the funeral
At every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral
Every occasion of one-billion day funeral

My boyfriend had told me one day to play this song at his funeral while we were blasting music in the car as we always did. Never thought that time would come so soon. 20 years young. He passed away unexpectedly a 3 weeks ago. He was in the ICU for 4 days with no brain function. I sat with him all night and played music. Now I am making the video for his funeral and honoring him by putting this song in the video. Its hard to forget someone who gave you so much to remember. Life is so fragile. Those moments together are irreplaceable.
