[00:59.00]The days grow short, the nights are gone
[00:59.00]Since you were here, I can't go on
[00:59.00]I cried for you, to no avail
[00:59.00]Now my life runs cold when the night winds wail
[00:59.00]But I cheat the hangman, cheated him many times before
[00:59.00]The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour
[00:59.00]Yes, I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
[00:59.00]I leave a kiss behind
[00:59.00]
[00:59.00]The rain that fell upon my stone
[00:59.00]Like tears you cry I shared alone
[00:59.00]I walk the night, I cannot sleep
[00:59.00]The love you spend you cannot reap
[00:59.00]
[00:59.00]The glow of love will then shine
[00:59.00]Lighted windows stare at the lonely stranger there returning home
[00:59.00]Only lighted windows stare at the lonely stranger there returning home
[00:59.00]
