Won't do no good

To hold no seance

What's gone is gone and

You can't bring it back around

Won't do no good

To hold no searchlight

You can't illuminate

What time has anchored down

Oh, honey

(I've gone a)

Oh, honey

(I've gone a)

Oh, honey

(I've gone away)

Won't do no good

To sing no love song

No sound could simulate

The presence of a man

Won't do no good

Asking no questions

Your divination should

Acquaint you with the plan

Oh, honey

(I've gone a)

Oh, honey

(I've gone a)

Oh, honey

(I've gone away)

My feel for you, boy

Is decaying in front of me

Like the carrion

Of a murdered pery

And all I want is

To save you, honey

You can't intimidate me

Back into your arms

Oh, honey

(I've gone a)

Oh, honey

(I've gone a)

Oh, honey

(I've gone away)

My feel for you, boy

Is decaying in front of me

Like the carrion

Of a murdered prey

And all I want is

To save you, honey

Or the strength

To walk away

My feel for you, boy

Is decaying in front of me

Like the carrion

Of a murdered prey

And all I want is

To save you, honey

Or the strength

To walk away
