Lyrics

Oh My Dearest One,
I'm gonna write you a letter
In pokeberry juice that Southern heat induced
Blood red pokeberry juice, uh huh

I squeezed it from the pokeberry
Put it in a crimson jar
Now I’m gonna write that letter
And send it from afar, uh huh

In the grove—a Civil War
Between the North and South
My heart and head torn asunder
Love’s a battlefield and I'm going under

There’s a battle to storm the fort
Who’s winning or falling short
Either way there’s fatalities
Arrows to the heart injuries, uh huh

All the things I want to say
I’ve laid it all bare on the page
Each and every word’s a berry stain
But I can no longer refrain
I love you, there I said it, I love you

Yours, I remain,
Yours yours yours
