lyrics

The smell of her perfumed skin
Carried on the wind
Stronger than the strongest gin

The moor is cold and cruel
I’ll bear it just to bathe 
In her moonlit pool

Where do you hide?
I’m calling out to you
Grace me with your smile
No one else will do

Through grot and gloom
My love will shine
Upon her silver hair
Anyone can see that
I need her more than air
Forever forever we shall lie
On beds of heather beneath the sky

For just a taste of her heart
Even God above
I would rip apart

Forget that other man
Who sought your hand
He swings from a branch

Why do you run away ? 
We are meant to be !
Why do you scream, 
sweet Lochness Lady ?

Through grot and gloom
My love will shine
Upon her silver hair
Anyone can see that
I need her more than air
Forever, forever in the mud 
Mixing together seed and blood

I see now what is true
My love to you is refuse 
Is there another man?
If I can’t have you no one can...
