| I took her to the dark wood
|
| And I laid her on the ground
|
| I asked her if this was good
|
| But she did not make a sound
|
| Listen to me, detective, I think you’d better close your file
|
| No, no, no, no, officer, I haven’t seen her for a while
|
| Green leaves for her coverlet
|
| Her wreath a daisy chain
|
| I was once her lover, yet
|
| Her reaper I became
|
| Listen to me, relative, I think you’d better learn to smile
|
| No, no, no, no, officer, I haven’t seen her for a while
|
| And I have wandered through a wilderness
|
| And I have wandered through a wilderness
|
| And I have wandered
|
| And I’m happy here by myself
|
| Just me and my girl
|
| I’m happy here by myself
|
| And I’m feeling so good tonight
|
| With you by my side
|
| I’m feeling so good tonight |
