On a bright day she passed away in the morning

It's a cruel way to take her away with no warning

He took her hands through every midnight hour

And then saw her fading away like a spring shower

I can see a complete life's time

Pictures and posters of times and fashion

Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme

Taken away in a crime of passion

He stood to see if he could catch her breathing

But it was no good he understood she was leaving

He looked outside the frosty window pane

And then he saw her moving away Elizabeth Jane

I can see a complete life's time

Pictures and posters of times and fashion

Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme

Taken away in a crime of passion

I see freedom in sight it's a long climb

But she would not give up the fight for a long time

And I see a light come shining in tonight

Baby it's all right we couldn't have changed it with second sight

I can see a complete life's time

Pictures and posters of times and fashion

Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme

Taken away in a crime of passion

I see freedom light shining in the night

I see freedom but she wouldn't give up the fight

I see a light go shining in tonight

Baby it's all right we couldn't have changed it with second sight

I see a light go shining in tonight

Baby it's all right we couldn't have changed it with second sight
