Runaway Love
As the moon peaks out of a cloudy black sky
After rain drops wash the dead
I can see the footprints of my runaway love
And my heart was stilled with dread
For on the cemetery ground where her feet left track
Was a letter wrote to me alone
It lays in the mud,
Where water pools like blood,
At the foot of my headstone...
