Lost a Girl Found a Wife
I lost my precious apple
I didn't know what to do
I never thought it could happen
Till the day I lost it all.
I was used to my apple
without it I was lost
I will do anything to get it
No matter what it costs.
I went in search of my apple
The one that is now a dream
I saw it in a garden, I ran there with a scream
Only to find with a stranger, with tender loving care.
I came home with a temper
That boils like hot water
I wandered about the path, like one that's lost his mind
And that moment I knew, I wouldn't take it back.
The years have now gone by
I am glad I did not die.
A precious apple I lost
Now I have a golden one..
