H'almost caught you baby
Stripped the laurels from your arm
H'almost caught you babe I
Pulled the quarrel from your heart
I'm so tired sing another tune
Almost caught you baby
But now it's done
Almost lost ya baby
To a town I never known
Made our hearts a small house
And a place to spend alone
Night's so quiet; sing another tune
Almost caught you baby
But now it's done
I quivered at your first touch now we're scared to miss your blood
Turning out our pockets to cut thread that's spun out
I'd bear it out if I could
Almost caught you baby
But now it's done
Look at me now I'm just a poor girl
Empty bleach to fill my cup
I look back at all these memories
It's a bit too much
Oh don't you weep
Don't cry
Oh better me, better me
Do you feel it?
