Level your fretting. 
I won't be forgetting 
The flush of your face 
When I lifted you level 
To me and a wattle tree 
Framed your body

In whispers welling with 
The dope of a new Spring 
You said "Kill me a dynasty 
Or our love won't mean a thing..." 

A bullet for a diamond ring
A favor promised 
A promise delivered 
And more to you 

It's only a war I'll be back 
To your shore before 
You know it I'm gone, 
Then I'll cover you body

And if you have to go 
Please go lightly
Keep it to a foxtrot 
Whether he's a fox or not 

Keep it cold, 
Keep all your heat for me 
I'll be needing it 
For when I'm cold you see

Let your children 
Remind you of me 
Whether by another or 
By the ghost in me in you 
There goes my baby

I would think of you 
And a palmtree would 
Cover your body
You... in love and war 

We are bound by a law, 
It goes to you and then 
To yours to recover my body

She bound me up and hugged me 
'O how the mother loves thee' 
She covered my body 
In a ragged flag and bloody 
O not on your life.
