Secret of the Waterfall

1 4 1
Down by the waterfall
4 1
Where the waters run so cool
4 1
There no secrets ever fall
4 1
From the lips of the fool
 

1 4 1 5
Jeniffer was seventeen the same age as I
1 4 5 1
She had lived next door to us since we were five
4 1 5
She knew I loved her dearly I told her many times
1 4 5 1
And I looked forward to the day when she would be all mine
 

One more year of school we thought then wedding bells would ring
But the hand of fate has ways of changing everything
I walked upon the two of them down by the waterfall
Jeniffer and Jimmy Jones they saw me not at all

Jimmy Jones was married and had a family
And I just couldn’t understand why they did this to me
Both were scared but all they thought I’d do was tell his wife
Their faces turned to masks of fear before I took their life

People thought that Jeniffer just up and ran away
Jimmy Jones who disappeared is a mystery today
Many years have passed but bitterly I still recall
And only I alone know what’s behind the waterfall
