The Walkabouts - Lover's Crime lyrics

Way up north, my love lies sleepin' Her lonely grave, beneath the pines How sadly i recall her memory She was my own true love devine One night i found her with another They did not know i was around In a blinded rage i drew my pistol I k**ed them both and fled that town For many days i wandered over Across the sea and desert sands My heart filled with grief and sadness I could not clense these, my blooded hands For many years i've been a prisoner My grayin' hair marks off the time I'm going back to my old north-lands To wash away my sin and pride x2
