I Burnt Your Clothes

I had no knife but myself

It was me I cut but you bled as well

How could I help my dear sweet pretty one?

When I could not put down the gun

And I don't know your name

Sweet baby Jane

You'll find it unbelievable

I left you in the hospital

And you don't have a stitch to wear

'cos the doctors cut the clothes right off your back

And guess what I don't care

About who or what or when or where

And Heaven knows;

I burnt your clothes

That's it, there's no road left to run

I spilt myself 'til I had none

I grew thorns upon your path

They struck not at your feet but at your heart

Still don't know your name

Sweet baby Jane

You'll find it unbelievable

I left you in the hospital

And you don't have a stitch to wear

'cos the doctors cut the clothes right off your back

And guess what I don't care

About who or what or when or where

And Heaven knows;

I burnt your clothes

I howled outside your door

I was the wolf but I'll return no more

This life is black, and running through a

Heart that's cursed, I lost the best

But can I lose the worst?

I'll soon know your name

Sweet baby Jane

You'll find it unbelievable

I left you in the hospital

And you don't have a stitch to wear

'cos the doctors cut the clothes right off your back

And guess what I don't care

About who or what or when or where

And Heaven knows;

I burnt your clothes

I burnt your clothes

I know your name

You are my sweet baby Jane
