I know, although when looks meet
G D
I tremble to the bone,
G D
The more I leave the door unlatched
G D
The sooner love is gone,
C G
For love is but a skein unwound
D
Between the dark and dawn.
C G D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooo ooo oooho
G D
A lonely ghost the ghost is
G D
That to God shall come
G D
I - love's skein upon the ground,
G D
My body in the tomb -
C G
Shall leap into the light lost
D
In my mother's womb.

G D
But were I left to lie alone
G D
In an empty bed,
G D
The skein so bound us ghost to ghost
G D
When he turned his head
C G
passing on the road that night,
D
Mine must walk when dead.
C G D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooo ooo oooho
