1939 - Hayden

I once saw a girl on my lawn

She was so pretty and young

She walked right up and just said

«Your house is where I once lived»

She asked to look around

To see if she could find

The part of her she left behind

That she needed to move on

I didn’t want to let her down

It was with her that I was found

So I lead her into my place

You should have seen her face

She said her name was Sam

And I let her know who I am

She asked if she could bathe

And I said: «Okay»

An hour went by and the door opened wide

And through the steam I saw her eyes

She said: «You saved my life»

It was with her that I was right

A week maybe two disappeared

She never came back around here

I asked the old man living beside

If he remembered Sam and he cried

The beauty he described

Was the girl I let inside

But what he said after I’ll never forget

Until the day that I die

The girl I met drowned in the bath

In my house at 25

In 1939

It was with her that I tried
