A.k.a. "The Two Magicians", a traditional song-poem dating from the 17th century and possibly earlier. In the original version, Tibet continues as such:

"And she became a corpse, A corpse all in the ground And he became the cold grey clay And smothered her all around"

And in some live versions, a final repetition of the chorus follows. All I can say is that this song is amazing, especially when David really gets into it.
