Oh death, oh death, 
Oh look what the lord has done: as I swung on the rope his hands held tight, a knife in my back was my hope to have you by my side. 
To have you by my side. And who, oh who are you now? 
Oh death, oh death, 
Oh look what the devil has done: he closed my coffin with daggers and nails to keep me from bringing you in, to have you by my side. 
To have you by my side And who, oh who are you now? 
And who, oh who am I now? 
I believed you were gone, and that this road where I’m on was my way back to you and that somehow it was true: Here lies 
Harry and his wife with his tombstone and her knife 
Oh death oh death, 
Oh look what the night has done: she closed those eyes of the men outside and carried me down to your bed. 
And oh death, oh death, 
Oh look what I have done: I held my breath up until you spoke and I lied my way down to have you by my side. 
To have you by my side.
 I believed you were gone, and that this road where I’m on was my way back to you and that somehow it was true: here lies Harry and his wife with his tombstone and her knife. 
I believed you were gone, and that this road where I’m on was my way back to you and that somehow it was true: here lies Harry and his wife with his tombstone and her knife. 
That’s how you end a love affair. 
Oh that is how you end a love affair. 
Oh death oh death, 
Oh look what you have done
