Lyrics Hangman - The Lonely Forest

Hangman

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
