That you could forget me | B |
And that I'd plead and weep | C |
And throw myself under the hooves of a bay mare | D |

Or that I'd ask the sorcerers | E |
For some magic potion made from roots and send you a terrible gift | F |

And by the fire and smoke of our nights | L |
I will never come back to you | M |
