Amarillis' Secret Ty Billings Johnny loved Amarillis, and his heart was for nobody else She gave her love to him freely, and into his arms she
would melt He'd say Amarillis, I love you, and I would die for you The moments that they spent together, were the moments
they’d never forget And the times when her husband was present Johnny's eyes filled with tears of regret Saying Amarillis, I love you, and I would die for you Well a murder most foul was committed on a night in which
they spent alone Johnny would not be acquitted, for her honor should stand
on it's on He said Amarillis, I love you, and I would die for you Johnny an innocent man would not tell the judge where he
had been For Amarillis would surely be fitted with a letter as
scarlet as sin He said Amarillis, I love you, and I would die for you Johnny will hang on this morning Amarillis will cry on
this day The hangman he ask without warning, do you have any last
words to say He whispers Amarillis, I love you, and I will die for you Now, Amarillis, she walks through the graveyard, In a veil that's the deepest of black She'd give up all of her riches if she could have dear
Johnny back She cries Johnny, oh I love you, and I would die for you She cries Johnny, oh I love you, I would gladly trade my honor for you |
