Able May

You took my heart

And buried it deep

Deep in the ground

Beneath the weeds

And through the tears

The tears I weep

I pray the Lord

My soul to keep

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

I feel my bones

Waste until they're none

I'm left alone

Left with a soul that weighs a ton

And through the break of every morning sun

My only prayer is that today thy will be done

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

I feel her breath

Move through the leaves

I see her take another soul

She must deceive

And once again

I must believe

And pray the Lord

My soul to keep

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?

Oh, Able May, why did you take my love away?
