All and all, here's all I knowHer heart stopped beating years agoBut below the ground her hair did growIt pushed aside the coffin doorIt pushed up through the earthen floorWhen I got home, a forest had grownWhere was the girl that I'd left so many years beforeSo if you are the traveling kindDon't take a love you might leave behindTake my advice, stay at homeIt's better to have never lovedThan to be loved and be left aloneSo I built a cabin thereIn the forest of her hairAnd when some years had come and goneThere came to my humble homeA storm, and a young womanWho found my cabin nice and warmShe stayed with me a night, no lessI enjoyed her company, I must confessIt lifted the veil of lonelinessLetras de cancionesThat had hung over meBut in the morning, when I roseI found the trees of the forest had grownThey blocked up the windows, they barred up the doorsThey grew up through the cracks in the floorsAnd across my cabin they spreadAnd over the wrists and the ankles and the neckOf the young woman in the bedAnd she twisted and writhed like a rag in the windThe forest her final resting placeMy cabin, her coffinSo if you are the traveling kindDon't take a love you might leave behindTake my advice, stay at homeIt's better to have never lovedThan to be loved and be left alone From Letras Mania
