Hangman - The Lonely Forest

Morning light saves from darkness

Her son lay dead before her

She lifts his body, cradles softly

Cursing God, the Father

Morning light saves from darkness

Her son lay dead before her

She lifts his body, cradles softly

Cursing God, the Father

Tried to live life justly

And now you have repaid me

You’ve taken my son from the world

Up into your arms?

Now I’m sure I won’t believe in

All the promises that you sing

And damned if I don’t feel this love

And all the hope you say you’ll bring

Now I’m sure I won’t believe in

All the promises that you sing

And damned if I don’t feel this love

And all the hope you say you’ll bring

Tried to live life justly

And now you have repaid me

You’ve taken my son from the world

Up into your arms?

Left me hanging

Left me hanging

Time and time again

Oh you’ve left me hanging

Left me hanging

From the noose we’ve tied my friend

Take care of him Lord

Tried to live life justly

And now you have repaid me

You’ve taken my son from the world

Up into your arms?

Take care of him!

Have mercy!

Tried to live life justly

And now you have repaid me

You’ve taken my son from the world

Up into your arms?

Left me hanging

Left me hanging

Time and time again

Oh you’ve left me hanging

Left me hanging

From the noose we’ve tied my friend

Take care of him Lord
