Well you know that it's true   Since I coupled with you   I have watched opportunity stray   Some to gold some to mud   I've got the road in my blood   'Cause you stole my heart away      Father hear my lament   What was straight now is bent   What was black is now fading to grey   It's a bird it's a plane   It's a fault in my brain   'Cause you stole my heart away      Well the weakness is mine   It's been here for a time   Keeping all of these riddles at bay   If I don't have a whip   I go upstairs and strip   'Cause you stole my heart away      You are hardly yet beaten my son   You have still got another bullet   Left in your gun      Well the garden is green   It's a real gentle scene   It will bring us together I pray   Like a bee to a flower   You'll be mine in an hour   'Cause you stole my heart away
