The Steel Woods - Della Jane's Heart Lyrics

In her red sun dress with braids in her hair
She crawled out her window and ran to meet him there
Where she gave up on youth and gave into desire.
Where the touch of his hand lit a wildfire

And a sliver of light cuts through the dark, and the moonlight shines on Della Janes Heart

The cold wind was blowing as she reached for his embrace
But it only got colder when she saw the look on his face
His blindsiding words of his new love for Anna Lee
filled her with rage as he told her of their plans to leave

And a sliver of light cuts through the dark, and the moonlight shines on Della Janes Heart

Now the weight of her world, was heavy as lead
But she drug it on down to the ol' riverbed
With her knees in the mud she looked up and prayed
Lord, please wash all of my sins and his body away
Wash it all away
