She stood on the hill near the land that I till

And she wore a red dress though I couldn't care less

She's as beautiful now As on the very first day that we met

I was dead and alone and I held what I own

Just a bottle of sin that I've tried to disown

Since the day I was born, the devil has made me his home

She wasn't the same and she called out my name

Like a raven who's lost or a child in pain

She is hunted and lame And I am the reason to blame

Well, I've poured my last glass as I've done in past

And I'll do it again if you give me the chance

If you give me a light I will give you my last breath

And she said

Oh, the dead have come and gone

Our love will carry on

And though I pray for this evening to end

Our love will carry on



I looked in her eyes her most beautiful eyes

I was sick in my thoughts and I wanted to die

And I prayed for the end oh Lord how I prayed for the end

She reached for my hand and she kissed all its scars

Now the roses are dead and she fell in my arms

As we kissed on the lips I fell back in the abyss

And she said

Oh, the dead have come and gone

Our love will carry on

And though I pray for this evening to end

Our love will carry on

 Oh, the dead have come and gone

Our love will carry on

And though I pray for this evening to end

Our love will carry on
