My heart was wrapped in satin paper,
My treasure presented on a platinum platter,
My sacrifice, as the reed fife played.
My only gift to give I made,

My invitation to love.. to live.
My gift misunderstood for a shiv.
My bonnie used it to escape my paradise that was free.
My little bird come back to me.

My dislocated heart was found,
My mouth rejoiced but nary a sound,
My bonnie was not in sight,
My heart reset at midnight
