|
That's where we used to go, |
|
Come rain or shine or even snow, |
|
Even in snow, |
|
She shared her secrets there, |
|
She shed her clothes and skin and hair, |
|
Her beautiful hair, |
|
That's when I made her mine, |
|
I carved our names in Emily's pine, |
|
Emily's spine. |
|
That's where we'd spend our days, |
|
And that's where my lovely lady plays, |
|
Come share the shade with me, |
|
Come find some peace beneath the tree, |
|
Our evergreen tree, |
|
And that's when I made her mine, |
|
I carved our names in Emily's pine, |
|
Emily's spine. |
|
(Okay now, lets go) |
|
Somewhere a radio played, |
|
A quiet mournful serenade, |
|
She didn't make a sound, |
|
And so I lay my true love down, |
|
There on the ground, |
|
But when our song was done, |
|
My only precious thing was gone, |
|
Baby be gone. |
|
(One last time boys) |
|
Goodbye baby, |
|
I'm never coming back, |
|
Burnt all the evidence, |
|
And covered up my tracks. |
|
Goodbye baby, |
|
I'm never coming back, |
|
Burnt all the evidence, |
|
And covered up my tracks. |
