lyrics

I once loved a girl, her skin was so white
She lived down the Broad Street mews
Her hair was like velvet her figure so tight
And eyes like Audrey Tautou

On a young summer's night I stole her away
From her mother and brothers we ran
O’er the border we fled to a soft feather bed
Side an inn down the Isle of Man

I had her by day I had her by night
Our young passion burned with a fire
13 months on the run till she bore me a son
Then back to her Mother she ran

And for me what I’ve done I cannot be excused
I squandered our money away
Whoring and fights whiskey by nights
Gambling and drinking by day

Took the wind from my sails and the floor from my feet
And from her still I haven’t heard yet
I remember her eyes and I long for her thighs
And wonder whoever she's met?

I had her by day I had her by night
Our young passion burned with a fire
13 months on the run till she bore me a son
Then back to her Mother she ran

Oh my love she’s away and I’m filled with regret
And the tears they are blinding my sight
For my sense it had gone and my love I did wrong
Love's ashes blow in the night

Beneath the bare light I lie in my room
Alone in my soft feather bed
For her Mother it’s right that I can’t stand the sight
For she’s put a price on my head

I had her by day I had her by night
Our young passion burned with a fire
13 months on the run till she bore me a son
Then back to her Mother she ran
I had her by day I had her by night
Our young passion burned with a fire
13 months on the run till she bore me a son
Then back to her Mother she ran
Then back to her Mother she ran
Then back to her Mother she ran
