Would you lay with me in a field of stone?
If my needs were strong, would you lay with me

Should my lips grow dry
Would you wet them, dear
In the midnight hour
Should my lips grow dry

Would you go away to another land?
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand
If I give myself to you

Will you lay with me in the stream of life?
When the moon is full
Will you bathe with me?

Will you love me now?
When I'm down and out
In my time of trial
Will you stand by me?

Would you go away to another land?
Walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand
If I give myself to you

Would you lay with me in a field of stone?
If my needs were strong
Would you lay with me?
