what she wanted
.
because this is what she wanted
she would will it into truth
this is what she wanted
on a summer’s day, he’d knelt down
on a summer’s day
he had begged, he had nearly begged
and she said yes
she said yes
this is what she wanted
such a good man, steady and true
such a good man
he would give, he would give all he had
and he loved her
he loved her
this is what she wanted
because this is what she wanted
she would will it into truth
that this is what she wanted
.
