The days grow short, the nights are long
Since you were here, I can't go on
I cry for you, to no avail
Now my life runs cold when the night winds wail

But I cheat the hangman, I've cheated him many times before
The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour,
Yes I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
I leave a kiss behind

The rain that fell upon my stone
Like tears you cried, I shared alone
I walk the night, I cannot sleep
The love you spend, you cannot reap

But I cheat the hangman, I've cheated him many times before
The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour,
Yes I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away
I leave a kiss behind

The glow of love will shine

Lighted windows stare at the stranger there returing home
Only lighted windows stare at the lonely stranger there returing home

I leave a kiss behind
The glow of love will shine
Lighted windows stare at the stranger there returing home
Only lighted windows stare at the lonely stranger there returing home
