Dying Breed Lyrics
red is a color of memory
blue was a way to green
and, darling, you did gamble
'cause you were a dying breed
yes, you were dying breed
yellow -- the color of your skin
black was the color of your hair
your earthly days have passed you by
where, oh where, oh where did you go
when they took your bones, now?
red is a color of memory
blue was a way to green
and, darling, you did gamble
'cause you were a dying breed
yes, you were dying breed
Frank, this song is for you, love,
And for your curly hair
your earthly days have passed you by,
where, oh where, oh where did you go
when they took your bones, now?
blue was a way to green
and, darling, you did gamble
'cause you were a dying breed
yes, you were dying breed
black was the color of your hair
your earthly days have passed you by
where, oh where, oh where did you go
when they took your bones, now?
blue was a way to green
and, darling, you did gamble
'cause you were a dying breed
yes, you were dying breed
And for your curly hair
your earthly days have passed you by,
where, oh where, oh where did you go
when they took your bones, now?

Frank is dead and she doesnt want to forget him, I think. This song rocks me hardcore. One of the best tracks in Bird on Water.
"Where did you go when they took your bones?" - the great mystery of Death.
instead of it saying "when they took your bones now" it says "when they took your bones and ran"
