Elegy

Hold still, don't move I say

wilt thou hear my elegy

Head high,

preserve my pride

I shall defy the gallows

I and you and me well

We just don't know

What love can do

I,I pledge to you that

I won't deceive

the heart that's mine.

As here I sit

I vow

your history

does not

perish my love

The shame

will be mine, for a

scarlet woman thou art

I and you and me well

We just don't know

What love can do

I,I pledge to you that

I won't deceive

the heart that's mine.

Dead from the grave

we're all slaves

to what we've got

Love's been through the door

for days.
