Lyrics
because I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me the carriage held but just ourselves and Immortality we slowly drove, he knew no haste, and I had put away my labor, and my leisure too, for his civility we passed the school where children played their lessons scarcely done. we passed through fields of gazing grain, we passed the setting sun, we passed the setting sun. we paused before a house that seen a swelling of the ground the roof was scarcely visible, the corners were around, the corners were around. since then 'tis centuries but each feels shorter than the day Since I first surmised the horses' heads it wore eternity, it wore eternity. because I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me the carriage held but just ourselves and Immortality
