Jasmine Thompson - No Poetry with tags jasmine, no poetry, jasmine thomson
I wrote this song two days after my dad’s funeral. The words are inspired by my brother’s eulogy.
If you’ve followed me for a while, I think you might know how much my dad inspired my music 💛

Lyrics (on subtitles)
Jed said it best
Oh the sun will set
Only to rise again
I say it’s funny,
Though my eyes are wet
Somehow everything’s changed
But nothing I guess
The words escape me every time
No perfect line
No poetry in dying
In my grief, I’ll laugh as much as cry
While life without you starts
While life without you starts
Tonight
Maybe I’ll stand in an empty field
Walk till the day makes sense
Maybe I’ll see now the windows clean
That there’s nothing to fear
But fear itself
The words escape me every time
There’s no perfect line
Ain’t no poetry in dying
In my grief, I’ll laugh as much as cry
While life without you starts
While life without you starts
Tonight
And sad not beautiful
It’s flowers
At a funeral
And the words escape me every time
There’s no perfect line
No poetry in dying
In my dreams, I’ll laugh as much as cry
While life without you starts
Life without you starts
Tonight
