When I die I don't want to rest in peace I want to dance in joy I want to dance in the graveyards, the graveyards And while I'm alive I don't want to be alone Mourning the ones who came before I want to dance with them some more Let's dance in the graveyards Gloria, like some other name we kept on calling ya and waiting for change But I belong to all of your mysteries And all of us, we're meant for the fire, but we keep rising up and walking the wires So when we go below don't lose us in mourning 'Cause when I die I don't want to rest in peace I want to dance in joy I want to dance in the graveyards, the graveyards And while I'm alive I don't want to be alone Mourning the ones who came before I want to dance with them some more Let's dance in the graveyards Oh my love, don't cry when I'm gone I will lift you up, the air in your lungs And when you reach for me, we'll dance in the darkness And we will walk beyond Our daughters and sons, they will carry on Like when we were young, and we will stand beside and breathe in their new life 'Cause when I die I don't want to rest in peace I want to dance in joy I want to dance in the graveyards, the graveyards And while I'm alive I don't want to be alone Mourning the ones who came before I want to dance with them some more Let's dance in the graveyards
