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
