I fell in love
with a brilliant boy
I gave him my heart
when he captured my voice
he carried it cross the sea
how did he
tangibly

Black was my true lover’s hair
his eyes were green and his skin was fair
I bend to kiss the ground where he is
standing there
the sugars rose
when springtime came
the fields were green
when I took his name
our love was ripe as summer’s rain
when they cut down that cane

Then the word came to my door
all the world had gone to war
he dropped his papers on the floor
he was called for the draft
I see him now in silhouette
fading toward an army jet
carrying with him bayonet
and a phonograph

I fell in love
with a brilliant boy
I gave him my heart
when he captured my voice
he carried it cross the sea
how did he
tangibly
tin
a needle
crank the cylindar round
until we meet again
send the men underground
bands of angels clean the blood from your brow

Through the smoke of firing guns
man by man the war is won
one another father son
your children all pass
then at last his letter came
the poem read of love and shame
all I have to keep me sane
is my phonograph

I fell in love
with a brilliant boy
I gave him my heart
when he captured my voice
he carried it cross the sea
how did he
tangibly
tin
a needle
crank the cylinder round
until we meet again
send the men underground
