The Heart is a Lonely Hunter

The muscle and bone, they encase my heart But never touch my soul Cause I'll save that for water around its shore Fear makes friends with joy And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget How the music stopped o'er the feel of your breath The flesh and the blood they keep my body warm Still my mind is cold To know what's fair is not always clear What proves true never be And I'll march slowly, and I'll never forget How that black dress fell upon your white neck Grand Isle rests quiet this time of year And I know you will be leaving soon, my dear
