Gallows Strung Lyrics

[00:03.638]	She tied a rope around your neck
[00:07.754]	And led you through the town
[00:11.874]	With love that’s like the gallows Strung
[00:16.150]	But she’ll never cut you down
[00:20.720]	When you left, the Sun went out
[00:24.918]	Walk in fields of grey
[00:28.824]	And I will wear my feather crown
[00:33.536]	Turn the night to day
[00:37.334]	You said my name, but the devil came
[00:41.103]	With her black eyes and paper cut smile
[00:45.680]	You said, "My love, has it been so long?
[00:49.361]	Won’t you stay a little while?"
[00:54.129]	I said, "No chance, the devil won’t dance
[00:58.110]	Or run with the wolves in the wild
[01:02.463]	I’ve had my fill, my way with your will
[01:06.134]	Leave me here, leave me here,"
[01:09.667]	"To sleep like a child
[01:17.901]	To sleep like a child
[01:26.293]	To sleep like a child
[01:34.766]	To sleep like a child
[01:51.467]	To sleep like a child."
[02:01.345]	You asked me silently
[02:09.777]	To keep your secrets close to me
[02:18.244]	You asked me silently
[02:26.494]	To keep your secrets close to me
[02:34.640]
[03:23.572]	To sleep like a child
[03:31.602]	To sleep like a child

[00:03.638]	She tied a rope around your neck
[00:07.754]	And led you through the town
[00:11.874]	With love that' s like the gallows Strung
[00:16.150]	But she' ll never cut you down
[00:20.720]	When you left, the Sun went out
[00:24.918]	Walk in fields of grey
[00:28.824]	And I will wear my feather crown
[00:33.536]	Turn the night to day
