Hello my friend
It's me again, I'd been waiting for hours
Til they let me in, Kemosabe

Hello my friend
It's me again, I'd been waiting for hours
Til they let me in, Kemosabe
Kemosabe
Who knew one day, the place where I'd play with you
[And] I would be late, now I've got to wait, Kemosabe
Kemosabe
Cemetery gates, they never age
But we do each day
You are so far, and yet six feet away
Six feet away
And I'm closer with each tear that falls from my face
To your grave
To your grave
I am not him who said "run hence, proclaim"
[Or] "fly not, stand still," as you lay slain, Kemosabe
Kemosabe
I swore to you I'd not weep at your grave
[But] you swore to me that you'd live past my day
Kemosabe
I've lied since that day
Kemosabe
And you lie six feet away
Six feet away
And I'm closer with each tear that falls from my face
To your grave
To your grave
Six feet away
And I'm closer with each tear that falls from my face
To your grave
To your grave

Kemosabe,
Now I've got to wait
Kemosabe
I'm sorry I'm late, Kemosabe
Sorry, I'm late
