I Was Buried In Mount Pleasant Cemetery Lyrics

[Chorus]
I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Alone and unceremoniously
Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery
When life was taken from me

[Verse 1]
Our tree was full and green, I had to leave it
The sadness was overwhelming, to be alone beneath it
The sun came down hot and hard, I could never sleep
To disappear was the only way I could find relief

[Chorus]
When I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Alone and un-Sarah-moniously
Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery
When life was taken so suddenly

[Verse 2]
First I paid my respects to Glenn Gould
And then I visited the grave of Alexander Muir
Next to Eaton's tomb, I hung my head and cried Looking for Joseph Mulgrew, I gave up and died
When I was buried

[Bridge]
The birds sang, for the flowers in bloom, spring had just begun
Recently fitted for a suit, now lying in a box
By summer, I was gone, my remains stolen from the ground
My body never recovered and I was never found
Until now
[Chorus]
I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Alone and unceremoniously
Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Between the monuments and trees
At the heart of the city
Amongst the statues and fountains
New life could begin
Where the old path I ran came to an end
