LoveBlood

I found out about her 
Her name's Mississippi Isabel 
She grows wild strawberries 
She's made of ivoire and pearl. 

To look at the universe 
She'd abandoned the world 
I'd go with her back to the darkness 
Abandon my life for this girl 

I rode around on my bicycle 
All the way in the rain 
She kissed me once I took her out for lunch 
And she never kissed me again 
x2 

Her beauty knows no tick of time 
She's the song of the nightingale 
The torture and the remedy, the tragedy 
In the passionate tale 

And I begged for forgiveness for the way that I am 
And I hope she doesn't blame men for the inelegance of men 

I rode around on my bicycle 
All the way in the rain 
She kissed me once I took her out for lunch 
And she never kissed me again 
x6
