I Cheat The Hangman

[00:29.95] The days grow short, the nights are gone
[00:34.24] Since you were here, I can't go on
[00:39.48] I cried for you, to no avail
[00:42.95] Now my life runs cold when the night winds wail
[00:49.69] But I cheat the hangman, cheated him many times before
[00:55.32] The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour
[00:59.88] Yes, I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
[01:05.24] I leave a kiss behind
[01:20.48] The rain that fell upon my stone
[01:23.35] Like tears you cry I shared alone
[01:29.53] I walk the night, I cannot sleep
[01:34.67] The love you spend you cannot reap
[01:39.77] But I cheat the hangman, cheated him many times before
[01:45.55] The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour
[01:50.16] Yes, I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
[01:55.66] I leave a kiss behind
[02:00.15] The glow of love will shine
[02:05.16] Lighted windows stare
[02:07.62] At the stranger there returning home
[02:15.29] Only lighted windows stare
[02:18.53] At the lonely stranger there returning home
[03:36.25] I leave a kiss behind
[03:41.24] The glow of love will shine
[03:45.58] Lighted windows stare
[03:47.83] At the stranger there returning home
[03:55.92] Only lighted windows stare
[03:58.24] At the lonely stranger there returning home
[04:03.10]
