Hangtown

Lyrics

Here along the castle walls
Wait for the fall
Lost in thoughts
Most everybody’s long
Dead and gone
Moved along
Right on
Moved along

She stayed behind when everyone
Fled to the hills
to save themselves
she creeps along the rusty walls
collecting logs
Counting months
Waits loves return
Waits loves return

Once along the castle walls
A village and trees
It’s all debris
The memory of a summer breeze
Your company
Reminded me

Look, you’ve got a face
I’ve got a face
If you’ll share your space
Right on

Once everybody was
Working the stone
Then left it alone
Yes, everybody was
Fucked in the head
A show of hands

Look, you’ve got a face
I’ve got a face
If you’ll share the space
Wait for loves return
It’s been a long year
Stay with me
Stay with me
And I won’t let you down
I won’t let you down
And I won’t let you down
I won’t let you down
