lyrics

i went riding down to
a dark valley stretched below me
thinking of your perfect body
and your soft lips on mine

strings and things tied around my waist
holding close all that i hold dear
and i hold you dear

you said once that you loved me
truly or falsely, doesn't matter much now
you stood so defiant
braids whipping around in the dusty wind
so tattered and torn
of heart and of soul
what was your life like when you left me?
for i still hold you dear

i can still see your face painted on my mind's eye
like gold, like yesterday
you looked so lovely like you wanted some more
like you wanted me more
press your lips on mine baby, just one last time
press your lips on mine baby, just one last time
for i still hold you dear
