Avaline, rest your crooked spine
Walk with me, come talk with me
I won't take any time
Half-alive, cos breathing is your right
Take me down to your old town
Where as a lass you'd shine
Lead me to where your old house once stood
Wiped away one new year's day
With it your childhood
Golden days, and your friends were so great
Now you're the last, time runs so fast
All seemed like yesterday...
Love came your way, you married straight away
He stayed with you, went grey with you
Died in your arms last May
Before you go, remember the window
Where as a girl you'd view the world
And imagine you were old
