Intro

2x

1.

oh lady fair your stranglin’ hair ribbons round my tongue

I try to speak but my thoughts grow weak for all the yarns you’ve spun

 I heard them say that evil may walk in beauty’s shoes

well if ever I could love myself then I’ll stop loving you

2.

were you out the other night flirting with all my friends

I heard you told a joke or two with my name at the end

hurry home I sit in stone tell me it just ain’t true

well if ever I could love myself then I’ll stop loving you

Bridge

2x

3.

when you’re gone I’ll carry on it was never meant to last

and I’d much prefer to sit alone and drink about the past

 or so I say some how some way till I believe its true

well if ever I could love myself then I’ll stop loving you
