Letra de Ribbons 'Round My Tongue

Oh lady fair, your stranglin' hair
Ribbons 'round my tongue
I try to speak, my thoughts grow weak
From all the yarns you've spun
I heard them say that evil may
Walk in beauty's shoes
But if ever I could love myself
Then I'll stop loving you
Were you out the other night
Flirting with all my friends?
I heard you told a joke or two
With my name at the end
Well, come 'round home, i'm all alone
And tell me that just ain't true
But if ever I could love myself
Then I'll stop loving you
When you're gone, I'll carry on
It's never meant to last
I'd much prefer to sit alone
And drink about the past
So I say "some how, some way"
Till I believe it's true
But if ever I could love myself
Then I'll stop loving you
