Mahogany Dread

Well I can't go back, I know that now But who said I wanted to? Oh, when I cut my hair and I rode away Yes, on that bright day With the sun in my eyes I maybe told myself a lie Yeah, the dead are here, they never go away Oh, so I never ask them to But the misery of love is a funny thing The more it hurts The more you think Yes, you can stand a little pain I can feel how you want the reins laid bare Do you think it's up to me? Oh, my baby girl with a song so fair The more she knows The more she cries I maybe told a couple lies Yes, the girl of mine with silver in your hair But I still want you It's getting hard to be easy now A couple of kids Mahogany dread But happy days are still ahead
