Winter has come To seal my fate Just a year ago I took that final step Took a gun and cut my sweet young lover down The newspaper said that the bad and the beautiful Carry the burden of love Now I simply refuse to cry With a secret I'll take to my grave For I have but an hour to go Now the hangman approaches death row Oh Billy love your child has grown I only hope that he won't be his mother's son With a vein of madness poisoning his soul Regrets I have none but the bad and the beautiful Carry the burden of love Now I simply refuse to cry... Goodbye to the world I love You have done me no good, you know My lullaby is a bell that tolls As the hangman approaches death row Now I simply refuse to cry...
