My sadness does escape me now.   I care not where I go.   The black old man takes off my clothes,   and throws me in the snow.       I gave you all I had to tell   and you gave me your will.   Well that's enouogh to wind a clock,   but not enough to kill.       Go away my precious doll,   Get thee gone from here.   When I close my eyes to sleep,   Please do not appear.       I emptied out your bag of toys,   and let them spin their web,   but oddly as I watched them turn,    my love begins to ebb.       I run like blood through open doors,    I go where hope bends me.   You're in my guts but evermore    our hearts will not agree.      Go away my precious doll,   Get thee gone from here.   When I close my eyes to sleep,   Please do not appear.       Go away my precious doll,   Get thee gone from here.   When I close my eyes to sleep,   Please do not appear.       When I close my eyes to sleep,   Please do not appear.
