You should imagine of Irie
In a lavender tinted dress she weeps

Irie Irie come down and see me
Irie Irie come live this life with me
Oh, Irie
And Oh, Irie

I sit waiting by a once thriving flower bed
Finding Irie's notes that I've come to collect

Find me Love me
You know where I reside
Come and take me away from his binding eyes
Careful wake him and you will surely die
Come silent swiftly
I'll see he sleeps tonight

Oh, Irie
And Oh, Irie
Oh, Irie
And Oh, Irie

Irie Irie please don't fight me
I can't take life from another soul
I regret how you will feel tonight
I must take leave from you this final time

And Oh, Irie
And Oh, Irie

I stop turning backwards momentarily
I feel useless to her
Spell placed so carefully

Lured, Irie why do you insist
On soiling my hands with stains colored burgundy

And Oh... Irie
And Oh... Irie
And Oh... Irie
And Oh... Irie

Irie Irie please don't fight me
I can't take life from another man
I regret how you will feel tonight
I must take leave from you this final time

And Oh... Irie
And Oh...
Irie
