As with Gladness

As with gladness men of old did the shining world behold
And took us down to the water's edge
Said if we are not, careful with what we do
We will reach a final end

She gave him everything
But he held her down and he tore her coat
I shouldn't have loved you
I shouldn't have loved you

As with gladness men of old did the shining world believe
And so took them down some bread
But when he up and threw away the seed
You could see her look away and sadly shake her head

She gave him everything
But he held her down and he tore her coat
I shouldn't have loved you
I shouldn't have loved you

We want for the blood of the earth
To cure up the vine
But we roll it aside, we roll it aside
We roll it aside, we roll it aside

She gave him everything
But he held her down and he tore her coat
I shouldn't have loved you
I shouldn't have loved you

She gave him everything
But he held her down and he tore her coat
I shouldn't have loved you
I shouldn't have loved you
