Oh mother, i can feel the soil falling over my head



And as i climb into an empty bed 

oh well, enough said



I know it's over still i cling, 

i don't know where else i can go

Over and over.....



Oh mother, i can feel the soil falling over my head



See the sea wants to take me,

the knife wants to slit (cut) 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 cling

I don't know where else i can go 

over and over.....



I know it's over and it never really began 

but in my heart it was so real

And she 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?"

"and if you're so very entertaining 

then why are you on your own tonight?"

"and if you're so very good looking, 

then why do you sleep alone tonight?"

I know  

'cos tonight is just like any other night 

that's why you're on Your own tonight



With your triumphs and your charms  

while they're in 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 and over....

It's so easy to laugh it's so easy to hate it takes guts to be gentle and

Kind - over and 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... etc.
