Broken Love

In a place I did dwell

I met a girl I loved so well

She came and took my heart from me

But now she's gone and set me free.

She sat upon another guy's knees

He told her things she never told me

Now I know why, he was prettier than I.

I ran home and cried upon my bed

Not a word my mother said

My dad came home late that night

They searched for me left and right

He went upstairs and my door he broke

And found me hanging on a rope

He took a knife and cut me down

And in my pocket the note they found

"Dig a grave, dig it deep

Marble stones from head to feet

And on top, place a dove

to show the world I died for love."
