Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head And if I climb into an empty bed Oh well, enough said I know it's over still I claim I don't know where else I can go other Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head See the sea wants to take me The knife wants to slit me Do you think you can help me? Sad veiled bride, please be happy Handsome groom, give her room Loud loutish lover, treat her kindly Though she needs you more than she loves you And I know it's over still I claim I don't know where else I can go other Over, over, over, over I know it's over and it never really began But in my heart it was so real And you even spoke to me and said If you're so funny Then why are you on your own tonight? And if you're so clever Then why are you on your own tonight? If you're so very entertaining Then why are you on your own tonight? If you're so very good looking Why do you sleep alone tonight? I know, cause tonight is just like any other night That's why you're on your own tonight With your triumphs and your charms All over each other's arms It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate It takes strength to be gentle and kind Over, over, over, over Over It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate It takes good to be gentle and kind Over, over Love is natural and real But not for you, my love Not tonight, my love Love is natural and real But not for such as you and I, my love Oh, mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, oh, oh Oh, mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, oh, oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, oh, oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head Oh, oh, oh Oh, mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
