Let me tell you a story 'bout a girl I knew Fairest skin with eyes of blue I swear to the lord that I loved her true It's a year now she's been gone
Well her spirit was as bright as the soft sunshine Lips the color of strawberry wine I wish to God she still was mine But the chance won't come again
After first we lay in love's sweet bed With one look at her eyes I might have read All the pain that was flyin' through her head Through my guilt I could not see
Oh, I turned to her when the mornin' came Hungry thoughts racin' through my brain But the knife in her heart screamed herself she'd slain And a note whispered love too soon
Oh her old man screamed and her mother cried All I could do was to wonder why A girl in her youth was forced to die Is lovin' such a crime?
She died (few in years) with breasts still small Seeing sixteens summers and fifteen falls Me and my blindness never realized all The fear she kept inside
Let me tell you a story 'bout a girl I knew Fairest skin with eyes of blue I swear to the lord that I loved her trueTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
