Oh, lady fair, your stranglin' hair
Ribbons 'round my tongue
I try to speak, my thoughts grow weak
For all the yarns you?ve spun

I heard them say that evil may
Walk in beauty?s shoes
But if ever I could love myself
Then I?ll stop loving you

Were you out the other night
Flirting with all my friends?
I heard you told a joke or two
With my name at the end

We come 'round home, I'm all alone
Tell me it just ain't true
But if ever I could love myself
Then I?ll stop loving you

When you?re gone, I?ll carry on
It was never meant to last
I'd much prefer to sit alone
And dream about the past

And so I say somehow, someway
Till I believe it's true
But if ever I could love myself
Then I?ll stop loving you
