[Verse 1]
If you have words speak of her
Don't use the time talk of shame
The lies you sell are not of her
But of another with her name

[Verse 2]
She wandered through my changing years
On all she touched she left her trace
And all the wonders of the day
Were bowed in shame before her grace

[Verse 3]
I knew her in her winter coat
Wrapped against the biting cold
I knеw her naked in the sun
Shе reached into my very soul

[Verse 4]
I still can taste sweet perfume
Imagination still it plays
Her face lit with that crooked smile
Whisper of my young days
[Verse 5]
So do not taint me with your tongue
What's truth to you is not for me
Just turn your face and walk away
Leave me with my memories

[Verse 6]
And if you speak if her at all
Don't use the words that twist and stain
For I would know her only
As I used to know her then
