Once when I saw her there
 White light she stood so still
 Warming her eyes to the sea
 Hardly her way to be free

 Auburn and ivory
 Heart break and pony tails

 Holding her bones by a fire
 writing the letter she sails
 white page turns golder lights
 wanting her one sacrifice

 auburn and ivory
 heart break and pony tails
 [bad word] to me
 and I'll tell you what's wrong
 she said, "I'll wait for you. I'll wait for..."

 Once when I saw her there
 white light she stood so still
 white page turns golder lights
 hardly her one sacrifice

 auburn and ivory
 heart break and pony tails
