Speak to me,
oh honey, speak to me
Lord, I'm so ashamed
Speak to me, oh if you'd only,
if you'd only just speak to me
Would I give to hear your sweet
little voice again?
I've been called here to identify
an apparent suicide
Me and your next of kin
Oh, it happened late last night
When I should have been with
you holding your tie
But no, now look what it cost
For my sin
The officer in charge said he
didn't understand
Words on a note clutched in your hand
And he went on to say, oh regret
As I live, I love you
Even in death I love you still
But I just couldn't spend
another night alone
And if I surrender
Don't cry
Because I'm gone
My love will live on and on
As I live I love you
And in death I love you still
But I just couldn't spend
another night alone
A small broken bottle at your bedside
A pillow wet from tears as you
lay waiting to die
Oh my love, oh my love, oh my darling,
my darling, my darling, my darling
Speak to me, oh honey, speak to me
Oh, so ashamed
