Lyrics

[Verse 1] My wife lies down in a chair and peels a pear I know she's there I'm making coffee for two just me and you But I come back in with coffee for three Coffee for three? [Verse 2] My dead wife sits in a chair combing her hair I know she's there She wanders off to the bed shaking her head "Robyn," she said, "You know I don't take sugar!" [Chorus] My wife and my dead wife Am I the only one that sees her? My wife and my dead wife Doesn't anybody see her at all? No, no no, no, no no no no [Verse 3] My wife sits down on the stairs and stares into air There's no one there I'm drilling holes in the wall, holes in the wall I turn round and my dead wife's upstairs, she's still wearing flares She talks out loud but no one hears [Chorus] My wife and my dead wife Am I the only one that sees her? My wife and my dead wife Doesn't anybody see her at all? No, no no, no, no no no no [Bridge] And I can't decide which one I love the most The flesh and blood or the pale, smiling ghost [Verse 4] My wife lies down 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 [Verse 5] Now my wife can't swim but neither could she And deep in the sea she's waiting for me, she's waiting for me Oh, I'm such a lucky guy 'Cause I've got you baby and I'll never be lonely [Chorus] My wife and my dead wife Am I the only one that sees her? My wife and my dead wife Doesn't anybody see her at all? No, no no, no, no no no no [Outro] No, no no, no, no no no no My wife and my dead wife Am I the only one that sees her? My wife and my dead wife Doesn't anybody see her at all? My wife and my dead wife Am I the only one that sees her? My wife and my dead wife Doesn't anybody see her at all?
