[1] Down by the [4] water-[1]-fall Where the [4] waters run so [1] cool There no secrets [4] ever [1] fall From the [4] lips of the [1] fool
[1] Jeniffer was [4] seventeen the [1] same age as [5] I [1] She had lived next [4] door to us [5] since we were [1] five She knew I loved her [4] dearly I [1] told her many [5] times [1] And I looked forward [4] to the day when [5] she would be all [1] 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
