Something's happened, now you're far away You had to leave, no time to explain I call, a brother said, "Mother's gone" The Ripper had came and took her

A bed of cotton and lace Hair down to her little waist She waits for the sun to go down Her visitors leave back to their Town of pain and grieving Laid
