The woman's like the
night she comes and goes
She breaks my heart each day and never knows
And the time I spend in sorrow will match the time I live
And the time that's left is all I have to give
The woman's like an ivy
on a pole
She wraps her twisted love around my soul
There will come a sudden winter when she'll seek the warmth of day
And there'll come a time when she will come to stay
The woman's like the
tide she comes and goes
She knows the things that I can just suppose
And the time I spend in sorrow will match the time that she laughs
And the songs I sing cannot explain the half
