Andy Richards Band - Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm

So you're the spirit who's been haunting me
I bid you farewell from my dreams
Before you go I'd like for you to know
I have a clean white conscience pure as snow

They severed off your hand and buried it shallow in the leaves
I'm forced to heed my own advice
Said I cannot pretend your love I will befriend
But your words sank to the creases of your frown

I see you staring down at me from a hollow in the tree I fear the worse and turn around
Said I cannot pretend your love I will befriend but my words sank to the creases of your frown.

I said it's time that you return from whence you'd came that tree in 1943
But you lowered your head to make it look like you were dead and said here lies Bella in the Wych Elm tree

With torchlight and smartphones the town they climbed the hill
And they stood in the shadow of the elm
There in the twisted bark was a message clear to see it said here lies Bella in the Wych Elm tree
