You're a ghost
My penance for crimes unseen
If this love is a falsity
Then the rouse has bested even me
If your heart lacks proper vision
My darling how is this to be?
Whether we be ash or ember
God's fire will burn in you and me
In you, maybe me
Lie with me through the years
I'll watch your red hair turn to gray
Smile at me with that tilted grin
Leave not tonight or today
When you leave
Goodnight my love
It's a shame I like broken things
It's a shame somebody clipped your wings
It's a shame my songbird won't sing
You've left me with countless tiny stings
Goodnight my love
