|
He buried her heart still |
|
He buried her on her own |
|
By the cool ferns |
|
In the rained on river bed |
|
He took her in his arms |
|
He carried her ghost |
|
Through grey stone fields |
|
He could feel her float |
|
She said, "I would die for you |
|
"I would die for you" |
|
And it all came true |
|
It all came true |
|
A love so dark |
|
Against that moon |
|
With a silken cord |
|
She spoke too soon |
|
She said, "I would die for you |
|
I would die for you" |
|
When he first laid eyes |
|
It was like a curse |
|
He felt his heart rise |
|
And gravity in reverse |
|
Her eyes full of hope |
|
Her voice full of mourning |
|
And her lips as red |
|
As a shepherds warning |
|
She said, "I would die for you |
|
"I would die for you" |
|
And it all came true |
|
It all came true |
|
He lay her down |
|
In the gentle earth |
|
And kissed her eyes closed |
|
Like it didn't hurt |
|
She said, "I would die for you |
|
"I would die for you" |
|
"I would die for you" |
|
"I would die for you" |
|
And it all came true |
|
It all came true |
