Lyrics

[Verse 1] It frightens me when you come to mind The day you dropped in the shopping line And my heart beats faster when I think of all the signs All the signs [Verse 2] When they carried you out your mouth was open wide The cat went astray and the dog did pine for days and days And I felt so guilty when we played you up When you were ill, so ill [Chorus] What sticks in my mind Is the sweet jar on the sideboard And your multicoloured tea cozy What sticks in my mind Is the dew-drop hanging off your nose Shrivelled up and blue [Bridge] And I'm getting older, too But I don't want to die like you Don't want to die like you Don't want to die like you [Outro] (Don't want to die like you) I don't wanna die I don't wanna die I don't wanna die like you Don't want to die like you
