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.
