 Long years ago I fell in love

 With a lady proud and fair

 So passionate were she and 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 ever found delight

In making my love cry

Now I'd pray for a single kiss from her

To be lashed and crucified

Bridge

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 through this life

She'll call me only friend

'Til I'm dead and buried in my grave

My love will never end

Bridge
