The Ballad of Louise

Naomi Martin

[Verse 1]
I had a love, he was mine
Said he'd love me all the time
I was sure our love was pure if love can be
Then one morning without warning
Truth came calling on me
And her name was Louise

[Verse 2]
I needn't tell you what she said
I just wanted to be dead
For she didn't show mercy for me
You should've seen her walk away
Into his waiting arms that day
And I watched him stopped to kiss Louise

[Verse 3]
The hour was late, the night was warm
I hid the bundle beneath my arm
The thought of what I'd soon be doing made me freeze
But without fear, I found them there
Just how and where I knew they'd be
Sleeping cradled in his arms was Louise

[Verse 4]
Now they close those heavy doors
I'll never leave here anymore
But I dare not beg forgiveness on my knees
For it was done with careful plans
She'll never steal another man
For tomorrow they'll bury Louise
