My love strayed to the forest
Where I could not stray
My love through the jungle
Beyond all I could see
Pestilence stalked my love and yet he passed me by
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to God
He could not tell me why
The day stretched before me
The future shone too bright
The river flowed so fast
The ocean spread too wide
The blue sky the rust in the sunset
Returned me to your eyes
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to God
He would not tell me why
I'd give my body for ransom
I'd give my body for ransom
I'd give my body for ransom
I'd give my body for ransom
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to God
I said hot words to god
He could not tell me why
