Sussex Ghost Story

Gavin Bryars / John Wesley Harding

After I had killed my wife
And by the jury been acquitted
I resolved to change my life
And try to lead a life less wicked
I roamed around
From town to town
In search of some employment
But it was here
I settled down


I saw her standing in the sun
I was bewitched by all her features
And before the day was done
I was in love with the schoolteacher
And since she had
No next of kin
I offered my assistance
To my surprise
She took me in


We spent the summer of that year
In a love of such perfection
But when winter first appeared
I felt the cold of her rejection
It was then
She turned to me
With a look I didn't recognise
"It is our anniversary"


"It is our anniversary
And you can not run away from me"
I saw a light
Upon a knife
And in a moment that I recognised
I begged for my life
