Spring Frost

You were so young and beautiful
And all the girls would sigh
As you walked by

You were so young and beautiful
And all the girls would sigh
As you walked by

You laughed and joked
You said you were so bored of life
So bored of it all, so young and bored
And all the girls they did sigh
As you walked by

For I was young so young
For I was young and full of dreams
I did not understand
That one so young could be bored
Bored of it all

You told me with a smile
You told me with a smile
That you were bored of life
So very bored of life

You told me with a smile that never left your face
That nothing interested you anymore
That you were so bored of it all
So very bored

And at that moment
You seemed so old to me
You seemed so very old to me
One thousand years old
One thousand years old

You were young and beautiful
You were young so very young and beautiful
And all the girls would sigh
As you walked by

One day out of a grey cloud
The news came by word of mouth to me
That you had died
That you had died

I heard you hung yourself
By Greenwich Pier
And the lights of the city expired
And the joy of this world expired

I would have liked to have known you more
I would like to have known you

But I ran out of time
I ran out of time
I ran out of time
I ran out of time
