Lyrics for Song: My Beautiful Bride
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Handsome Family
Out in the heather where the sun burns bright she swore
to love me the rest of her life.
But, my hands they shook as the noon bells chimed so
at the last bell I showed her my knife.
And I laid to rest my beautiful bride out in the heather
where the sun burns bright.
Now all alone under the cool night sky where locusts
scream and white moths fly,
silvery moonbeams fall on her grave,
but twisting black vines have covered her name.
For I loved too much my beautiful bride and so gave
her up to the cool night sky.
