Addie Jill the Pyromaniac

Across the frozen meadow, biting chills Safe inside a cabin, with Addie Jill Dear she said I love you, you said I'd write you a song But that was just last summer Both so young ​ Echo of a home life, both hid from your fires Rolled beneath the dark hay Heavy breath those nights Oh she said let's stay here You said, once winter ends But spring it never blossomed The meadow dead ​ How far would you go to say I love you? How far would you go to say I need you? Can't live without you ​ Late inside December, the cabin grew cold The once bright colored lilies Lay down as they wilt Dear she said, don't leave me You said, our love's already died You left her in the evening And Addie Cried ​ How far would you go to say I love you? How far would you go to say I need you? I'd die without you ​ So Addie set the fire, on a cold afternoon She lit but two wet matches, but this fire grew Dear she said I love you But only the ghosts heard her call So Addie in this fire Watched her world burn ​ How far would you go to say I love you? How far would you go to say I hate you? She's dead without you ​ So late inside April The cabin stood still And deep beneath the ashes Lay Addie Jill
