Testo di Pennies on His Eyes

With a broken neck we took him and laid him down to rest (something?) at dawn it's worse and we had done our best He looked just like my love but his soul had been set free I hope in heaven he will wait for me And in an empty parlor we said our last goodbyes I prayed for our salvation and put those pennies on his eyes And nobody was watching no one but God could see I hope in heaven he will wait for me I hope in heaven he will wait for me Along with all the paupers and the kings I hope in heaven he will wait for me Meanwhile I'll drown and drink to meet him speedily And when at last we buried him deep in (?) field And the ground I placed a wreath and on the dirt I kneeled And then I crawled into my bed and cried until i could sleep I hope in heaven he will wait for me I hope in heaven he will wait for me Along with all the paupers and the kings I hope in heaven he will wait for me Meanwhile I'll drown and drink to meet him speedily Meanwhile I'll drown and drink
