Policeman: But she came round in the end.
Couldn't keep away. Always thinking about these woods. Just like you. Then one day she said “let's go in.” I nearly cried. My girl. I did warn her. Bad things happen to girls in woods. Said I wasn't sure I'd control myself. But she wanted to so much. And she took my hand see. So I led her in. She was so sweet. We talked all the way. And when we got here she made me dig her that hole. Begged me. What could I do? I wanted to help. See, I loved her too. |
