Lyrics:

Oh Mother, I can feel
The soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed -
Oh well, enough said

I know it's over still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
Over... over

Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
See the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit me
Do you think you can help me?

Sad veiled bride please be happy -
Handsome groom give her room
Loud, loutish lover treat her kindly
Though she needs you more than she loves you

I know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can go -
Over, oh over
I know it's over

And it never really began but in my heart it was so real
And she even spoke to me and said, oh:
'If you're so funny, why are you on your own tonight?'
'And if you are so clever, why are you on your own tonight?'
'And if you're so very entertaining, why are you on your own tonight?'
'And if you're so very good looking, why do you sleep alone tonight?'

I know - 'Cause tonight is just like any other night -
That's why you're on your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms -
While they're in each other's arms
It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind -
Over, oh over, it's over, it's over

It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate
It takes guts to be gentle and kind -
Over, oh over

Love is natural and real -
But not for you, my love, not tonight my love
Love is natural and real -
But not for such as you and I my love

Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh, oh, oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh, oh, oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh, yeah, oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh mother, I can feel

That's about it
Let's go home
