Oh the the night is so still, not a baby will cry
|
Not a chill wind will blow, disturbing the sky
|
But there's no peace in me, I'm burning for you
|
I'm walking the floor in the devil's shoes.
|
|
When I get my rewards, I will bring them to you
|
I shall ask for your love, and swear mine is true
|
Will you cast me aside, and see me no more?
|
How can I win your heart when I get my rewards?
|
|
They say that your hand can never touch mine
|
That a poor boy can't hope for a woman so fine
|
But I work till I fall, determined to win
|
Driven by need to see you again
|
