To keep me company this evening
In my circumstance when still I wear your crown
You'll always be my queen of tumble down, Miss Melancholy
But I so generously did leave you
In my circumstance when still I wear your crown
Some cruel penitence, for what?
Are you laughin' at me now?
Ooh, are you flirting with me now?
But I'm still drawn on by the murmur
Are you laughin' at me now?
What's so funny? Box full o' honey
Are you laughin' at me now?
What's so funny? A box full o' honey
My life's penitence, for what?
Ooh, is she dallying with me now?
It's so lonely in the dirt, a scratchin' at the hurt
And my life's a penitence, for what?
What I thought a pretty tune was howling at the moon
Is she flirting with me now?
In my circumstance when still I wear your crown
And as the ghost will shiver trees, how I'm tremblin' on my knees
