1
I married Isis on the fifth day of May
2
But I could not hold on to her very long
3
So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away
4
To the wild unknown country where I could not go wrong.
5
I came to a high place of darkness and light
6
The dividing line ran through the center of town
7
I hitched up my pony to a post on the right
8
Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down.
9
A man in the corner he approached me for a match
10
I knew right away he was not ordinary
11
He said "Are you looking for something easy to catch ?"
12
I said "I got no money". He said "That ain't necessary".
13
We set out that night for the cold in the North
14
I gave him my blanket he gave me his word
15
I said "Where are we going ?" he said "We'd be back by the fourth"
16
I said "That's the best new that I've ever heard".
17
I was thinking about turquoise I was thinking about gold
18
I was thinking about diamonds and the world's biggest necklace
19
As we rode through the canyons through the devilish cold
20
I was thinking about Isis how she thought I was so reckless.
21
How she told me that one day we meet up again
22
And things would be different the next time we wed
23
If I only could hang on and just be her friend
24
I still can remember all the best things she said.
25
Well I picked up his body and I dragged him inside
26
I threw him down in the hole and I put back the cover
27
I said a quick prayer and then I felt satisfied
28
I rushed back to find Isis just to tell her I love her.
29
She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise
30
Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed
31
I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes
32
I cursed her one time then I rode on ahead.
33
Well I said "Where ya been ?" she said "No place special ?"
34
She said "You look different" I said "Well I guess"
35
She said "You been gone" I said "That's only natural"
36
She said "You gonna stay ?" I said "If you want me to, Yes ".
37
Oh Isis oh Isis you're a mystical child
38
What drives me to you is what drives me insane
39
I can remember the way that you smiled
40
On the fifth day of May in the drizzling rain.
