lyrics

Dear Elise your sweet perfume
It lingers in my room
Sweet Elise your lipstick stains
And that color of red it never fade

You walk around town with your head held high
The men they stare when you walk on by
Your like a thief in the dead of night
But I'm not crying
I'm not crying

Dear Elise you want him too
You can have him here and lie as you do
I've made you a parting gift and
Its made of stone, with your names on it,
and the words forevermore

Young Elise eyes of envy green
You want every man you have ever seen
Naive Elise long hair of gold
You think you'll never grow old

You can have my man I'm not crying
You and him forever you can stop trying
You and him together six feet underground

You can have my man I'm not crying
You and him forever you can stop trying
You and him together six feet underground

Dear Elise you want him too
You can have him here and lie as you do
I've made you a parting gift and
Its made of stone, with your names on it,
and the words Rest In Peace
