With a lady proud and fair
So passionate were she & I
We made fire in the air
I loved her more than life itself
She loved me just the same
And it broke my heart
To think we'd part if she ended the affair
But I was brutal, I was ignorant,
I was cruel, I was brash
I never gave a damn about
The beauty that I smashed
No sadist I, I found delight in
Making my love cry
Now I'd pray for a single kiss from her
To be lashed & crucified
And now I fear this lady fair
Can never more be mine
Long gone are nights in my lonely bed
All suffering and crying
And though I fear that thru this life
She'll call me only friend
'Til I'm dead and buried in my grave
My love will never end
Nine years ago I fell in love With a lady proud and fair So passionate were she & I We made fire in the air I loved her more than life itself She loved me just the same And it broke my heart To think we'd part if she ended the affair But I was brutal, I was ignorant, I was cruel, I was brash I never gave a damn about The beauty that I smashed No sadist I, I found delight in Making my love cry Now I'd pray for a single kiss from her To be lashed & crucified And now I fear this lady fair Can never more be mine Long gone are nights in my lonely bed All suffering and crying And though I fear that thru this life She'll call me only friend 'Til I'm dead and buried in my grave My love will never end Explain Request ×
