Marissa Nadler

Rachel

Oh what a day to dance with you

Oh what a day to die

I held you once in the palm of my hand

And a fine old time it was

Rachel I fear your death will come

And leave me alone to die

Rachel I fear your death will come

And gone to the dogs and the dimes

The men would come to you and me

We'd freeze them like a light

The men would come to you and me

We'd freeze them like a light

Say farewell Maria dear

Your bones and teeth and skin

Say farewell Maria dear

My you've grown so thin

Oh what a day to dance with you

Oh what a day to die

I had you once in the palm of my hand

And a fine old time it was

The men would come to you and me

We'd freeze them like a light

The men would come to you and me

We'd freeze them like a light

Say farewell Maria dear

Your bones and teeth and skin

Say farewell Maria dear

My you've grown so thin!
