I'll wrap this heart with cellophane

This is completeness again

The victory of which I'd spoken

To mend a heart that was one broken

Cause bodies break and so separate now

Green grow the rushes oh

These are the seed we've sewn

But who knows that way grow

From a heart of stone and bone

I'll bury these hearts in a casket

Swaddled with love and tightly fastened

I'll bury this love six feet under

Packed down with mud asunder

Cause this blood that flows is all my own

Nourishing my flesh and bones

This blood is all my own

It's mine alone

Green grow the rushes oh

These are the seeds we've sewn

Cause veins turn to roots and roots take hold

And they creep up slow

I'll sing you one oh

Green grow the rushes oh

One is one and all alone

And ever more shall be so

I'll sing you one oh

Green grow the rushes oh

One is one and all alone

And ever more shall be so
