Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
And as i climb into an empty bed
Oh well enough said
I know it's over still i cling
I don't know where else i can go
Oh
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
See the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit me
Do you think you can help me
Sad veiled bride
please be happy
Handsome groom
give her room
Loud loutish lover
treat her kindly
though she needs you
More than she loves you
And i know it's over still i cling
I don't know where else i can go
Over and over and over and over
Over and over la
I know it's over
And it never really began
But in my heart it was so real
And you even spoke to me
and said
if you're so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight
And if you're so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight
If you're so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight
If you're so very good looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight
I know
'cause tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms
It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
Over over over over
It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes guts to be gentle and kind
Over over
Love is natural and real
But not for you my love
Not tonight my love
Love is natural and real
But not for such as
you and i my love
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
Oh mother i can even feel the soil
falling over my head
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
Oh mother i can feel the soil
falling over my
