Three Questions Lyrics - Bonnie Prince Billy

"Three Questions" by: Bonnie Prince Billy 

Say I found a piece of rock 

And put it in my pocket 

And for the day that we are wed 

I put it in a locket 

Which is to hang around your neck 

As long as you see fit 

Well, tell me, o my love 

Do you think that you would wear it? 

And on the day that threatens 

That the earth might open up 

The birds have stopped their singing 

And the insects have shut up 

And all that's left between us 

Is some al-homdillillilie 

Oh would you split it with me, baby 

So that I wouldn't die? 

And after all these things 

Is a question I must ask 

When everyone has called me out 

And said I am the worst 

And asked for voices on my side 

My love, would you sing first? 

Would you say, "He's okay, 

He's better than the rest ; 

He's innocent in god's eyes 

And in mine, he is the best"?
