I Cheat The Hangman

[00:01.02] The days grow short, the nights are gone
[00:33.57] Since you were here, I can't go on
[00:38.80] I cried for you, to no avail
[00:43.57] Now my life runs cold when the night winds wail
[00:48.73] But I cheat the hangman, cheated him many times before
[00:55.36] The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour
[01:00.06] Yes, I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
[01:05.11] I leave a kiss behind
[01:08.89] The rain that fell upon my stone
[01:23.53] Like tears you cry I shared alone
[01:28.82] I walk the night, I cannot sleep
[01:34.27] The love you spend you cannot reap
[01:38.92] But I cheat the hangman, cheated him many times before
[01:45.33] The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour
[01:50.04] Yes, I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
[01:55.33] I leave a kiss behind
[01:58.89] The glow of love will shine
[02:03.99] Lighted windows stare
[02:06.89] At the stranger there returning home
[02:11.56] Only lighted windows stare
[02:17.17] At the lonely stranger there returning home
[02:21.63] I leave a kiss behind
[03:38.84] The glow of love will shine
[03:44.04] Lighted windows stare
[03:47.12] At the stranger there returning home
[03:52.17] Only lighted windows stare
[03:57.38] At the lonely stranger there returning home
[06:25.30]
