I came round the bend to see my girl but she was dead
Her cold and pale body lay in our wedding bed
Her ma was all in tears because her girl was dead
And I could only think about about the life she led
They said she took poison to take her life away
Left a note that said she'd be gone today
I could only cry and wash my tears away
Bleeding out my eyes to satisfy my dismay
I loved her and she loved me but not enough
They said her life was long and things were pretty rough
But I thought she had will because she was pretty tough
And I don't know what happened that made her take enough
Love my girl, love my girl
I loved that girl
I came round the bend to see my girl but she was dead
Her cold and pale body lay in our wedding bed
Her ma was all in tears because her girl was dead
So I laid her body down in an earthly bed
