lyrics

I'm on my knees and I'm praying very hard
A whirlwind swirls inside my troubled heart
Now I fear I'm just begging in the dark

Hangman's got a job to see me dead
I killed my Martha's lover, so they said
I was drunk and don't remember, I guess I did

I shall die when the sunshine fills the yard
I've never loved this much the moon and stars
I'm on my knees and I'm praying very hard
I'm on my knees and I'm praying very hard
I'm on my knees and I'm praying very hard
