Now once there was a maiden, a maiden was she.
She had a big heart for men like me.
She told me "O Joshua, just wait for me."
"I have to try one last time if only for me."
Now Joshua saw her tear drop, her teardrop saw he,
And he knew down deep inside how great is would be.
But he took up his music and gathered his robes
To prepare to make his travel down a dark and lonely road.
She said, "Now wait a minute; Here, take this little key."
"It'll unlock my heart when you come back to me."
O Joshua was a glad man, a glad man was he,
Saying "God bless that woman, her heart leaps up to thee!"
All I ask my lady as you read this poetry,
That in the dark times, remember little me.
