The Body

It was well into June and the sun was lost when we came upon her there
It had been some time it had been a while since she drew her dying breath
See the river ran low arm wounds deep what did you do to deserve these
Kristin our friend
It has been so long since she's been here darling oh say Madeline
We'll bring you home
Under the moon she trusted lies well they took her to her grave
In the end Paul took her soul
It has been so long since she's been here darling oh say Madeline
We'll bring you home
