But I am gone, I am gone.

I could kiss you darlin

But you brought me here to lay my stone-my love, my love- on this black day in July.

Verse 3:

You could call me sinner, you could call me saint.
Yeah, you can call me what you will, but this home's about to break.
Oh, my love, I never I wanted it this way.
Well, you know I loved you darlin, but it's in hell that I must stay.
