I heard a loud knock upon my door A sweet stranger she entered in The night was dark, the wind it roared Broken beauty she did bring Greed and gold Greed and gold Forever the loneliest road Welcome fine lady won’t you stay this night For fortunes may unfold I see precious jewels you keep so tight Like a sweet child in from the cold A silent room in the dead of night Two lovers lay there entwined From a deep sleep to her bed I creep Great treasures there I find The midnight moon all across her face It steals her out from a dream The mirror smashed, sharp silver flashed Broken beauty she did scream Crying greed and gold Greed and gold Forever the loneliest road Early in the morn you will find me gone I’ll seek a dark distant shore I’ll walk in fear but always hear Her knocking at my front door
