Well the radio played and the bed was made
And my lover watched the sunlight as it crawled into the shade
To the shade
And he left the room as softly as he came
Well it was not spring and it was not in the fall
Was the middle of the winter when he pinned me to the wall
To the wall
It was freezing when he pinned me to the wall
So I pulled on my coat and I sowed up my dress
As my lover lay there sleeping, well I packed my things and left
Oh when I left
Well that sun was barely rising when I left
Well the devil has been known to chase angels from their homes
And I know I got some angel left inside me
But my halo's hanging low
My halo's hanging low
And I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Well my cool drink of water, it's been turned to gasoline
And my man he don't love me, he's the lowest man I've seen
Well let your ears hang low, hear the sighing of the crow
This terrible secret we've been whispering
If you gotta go, you gotta go alone
Trembling as the arrow stands above
Oh before I left I watched him as he lay
Exhausted by the madness that unraveled in his brain
Well goodbye darling, goodbye darling
Never will you see me anymore
Farewell darling, farewell darling
Never will I see you anymore
