a romantic tragedy

Lyrics

I was sitting by the river`s edge, strummin' my guitar when She spoke to me
In a voice soft and low that seemed to flow right through to me, she said" Come on put on my cool skin, come on put on my cool skin.
I was in way over my head, still I followed her down by the river`s edge. A feeling began to glow from my head down to my toe and it was good , She said" Come on put on my cool skin, come on put on my cool skin.
I was told when they found me , the river had nearly drowned me, taken me for her own. Was it the pale kiss of death upon her lips, a bliss I`de never known, She said"Come on put on my cool skin, come on put on my cool skin
