Intro :

T his no song of inge nue

T his no ballad of in nocence

T his the rhyme of a l ady who

F ollowed ever the natural bents

T his a Solo of sa pience

T his a chantey of so phistry

T his the sum of expe riments

I loved them until they loved me

I loved them until the y loved me

I loved them until they loved me

D ecked in garments of s able hue

D aubed with ashes of myr iad Lents

W earing shower bou quets of rue

W alk I ever in pe nitence

O ft I roam as my he art repents

T hrough God's acre of mem ory

M arking stones in my reve rence

I loved them until they loved me

I loved them until the y loved me

I loved them until they loved me

Pictures p ass me in long review -

Marching c olumns of d ead ev ents

I was t ender and of ten true

Ever a p rey to coinci dence

A lways knew I the co nsequence

A lways saw what the en d would be

W e're as Nature has ma de us -- hence

I loved them until they loved me

I loved them until the y loved me

I loved them until they loved me

P rinces never I'd gi ve offense

W on't you think of me te nderly

H ere's my strength and my we akness gents

T his no song of inge nue

T his no ballad of in nocence

T his the rhyme of a l ady who
