[00:00.61]My wife lies down in a chair
[00:03.61]And peels a pear
[00:05.63]I know she's there
[00:08.87]I'm making coffee for two
[00:12.49]Just me and you
[00:16.92]But I come back in with coffee for three
[00:24.66]Coffee for three?
[00:26.56]
[00:27.60]My dead wife sits in a chair
[00:31.36]Combing her hair
[00:33.61]I know she's there
[00:36.41]She wanders off to the bed
[00:40.09]Shaking her head
[00:42.45]"Robyn," she said
[00:45.11]"You know I don't take sugar!"
[00:50.60]
[00:53.10]My wife and my dead wife
[00:57.28]Am I the only one that sees her?
[01:01.60]My wife and my dead wife
[01:06.11]Doesn't anybody see her at all?
[01:11.05]No, no no, no, no no no no
[01:17.62]
[01:18.72]My wife sits down on the stairs
[01:22.12]And stares into air
[01:24.41]There's no one there
[01:27.37]I'm drilling holes in the wall
[01:32.78]Holes in the wall
[01:36.20]I turn round and my dead wife's upstairs
[01:39.94]She's still wearing flares
[01:42.04]She talks out loud but no one hears
[01:45.45]
[01:46.19]My wife and my dead wife
[01:50.47]Am I the only one that sees her?
[01:54.86]My wife and my dead wife
[01:59.24]Doesn't anybody see her at all?
[02:03.68]No, no no, no, no no no no
[02:09.28]
[02:10.21]And I can't decide which one I love the most
[02:18.82]The flesh and blood or the pale, smiling ghost
[02:28.05]
[02:29.05]My wife lies down on the beach
[02:32.12]She's sucking a peach
[02:34.30]She's out of reach
[02:36.46]Of the waves that crash on the sand
[02:41.05]Where my dead wife stands
[02:43.22]Holding my hand
[02:44.86]
[02:46.20]Now my wife can't swim
[02:49.09]But neither could she
[02:51.23]And deep in the sea
[02:53.27]She's waiting for me
[02:55.84]She's waiting for me
[02:57.74]
[02:58.90]Oh, I'm such a lucky guy
[03:03.60]'Cause I've got you baby
[03:06.51]And I'll never be lonely
[03:07.27]
[03:08.30]My wife and my dead wife
[03:12.55]Am I the only one that sees her?
[03:16.71]My wife and my dead wife
[03:20.82]Doesn't anybody see her at all?
[03:25.58]No, no no, no, no no no no
[03:32.94]No, no no, no, no no no no
[03:36.30]
[03:37.01]My wife and my dead wife
[03:40.37]Am I the only one that sees her?
[03:44.61]My wife and my dead wife
[03:48.95]Doesn't anybody see her at all?
