Catherine Wheel from Ghost Story by Fern Maddie

Hey little darling if you were mine
Wouldn’t have any more reason to fight 
Wouldn’t have any more reason to steal 
Wouldn’t end up on that Catherine wheel 
Wouldn’t end up on that Catherine wheel 

Hey little darling if I were yours 
Be all the same reason to go the same course 
All the same reason to sail the same way 
Love won’t get you another day 
Love won’t get you another day 

Hey little darling if you were mine 
I think it would make the whole world fine 
I think it would set the whole world straight 
Wouldn’t end up on that gibbet gate 
Wouldn’t end up on that gibbet gate 

Hey little darling if I were yours 
The whole damn world would come through those doors 
The whole damn world would come to our bed 
Take no rest till they had our heads 
Take no rest till they had our heads 

Hey little darling if you were mine 
I’d think I’d just one thing right 
Think I’d done just one thing good 
Loving you the best I could 
Loving you the best I could 

Hey little darling if I were yours 
History would go the same course
The story would still have the same end 
So let’s keep fighting while we can 
Let’s keep fighting while we can 

Hey little darling if you were mine
I wouldn’t have any more reason to fight 
Wouldn’t have any more reason to steal 
Wouldn’t end up on that Catherine wheel 
Wouldn’t end up on that Catherine wheel
