My Wife And My Dead Wife (tradução)

My wife lies down in a chair
She's peeling a pear
I know she's there
I'm making coffee for two
Just me and you
Coffee for two
But I come back in with
Coffee for three
Coffee for three

My dead wife sits in a chair
She's combing her hair
I know she's there
She wanders off to the bed
Shaking her head
"Robyn", she says
"You know I don't take sugar"

My wife and my dead wife
Am I the only one who sees her
My wife and my dead wife
Doesn't anybody see her at all
No oh No No-o-o-o

My wife sits down on the stairs
She stares into air
There's no-one there
I'm drilling holes in the wall
Holes in the wall
I turn around and my

Dead wifes upstairs
She still wearing flares
She talks out loud but
No-one hears

My wife and my dead wife
Am I the only one who sees her
My wife and my dead wife
Doesn't anybody see her at all
No oh No No-o-o-o
And I can't decide which one I love the most
The flesh and blood or the pale smiling ghost

My wife is sat on the beach
She's sucking a peach
She's out of reach
of the waves that

Crash on the sand
Where my dead wife stands
Holding my hand
Now my wife can't swim but
Neither could she
and deep in the sea
she's waiting for me

Oh I'm such a lucky guy 'cos I've got you baby
and I'll never be lonely

My wife and my dead wife
Am I the only one who sees her
My wife and my dead wife
Doesn't anybody see her at all
No oh No No-o-o-o

My wife and my dead wife
Am I the only one who sees her
No oh No No-o-o-o
My wife and my dead wife
Doesn't anybody see her at all
