Heaven Have Mercy Songtext / Lyric

No more smiles, no more tears

No more prayers, no more fears

Nothing left, why go on

When your lover is gone

Shout with one

Ring the bells

Throughout the towns

And the farms

Will the shouts and the bells

Bring him back to my arms

Must each man go to war

Evermore, evermore

While some lone woman stands

Empty heart, empty hands

When the time came to part

And he kissed me goodbye

From the depths of my heart

Came a great lonely cry:






Heaven have mercy!

Heaven have mercy!



Miners came

They carved his name

Upon a cross

I remember the dance

Where we first fell in love

How we whirled round and round

While the stars danced above

We would walk by the shore

Watch the ships sail away

Lovers need nothing more

Just a new dream each day

So we dreamed of a home

With a garden so fine

And a son with his eyes

And a nose just like mine

Now it's done, why be brave?

Why should I live like this?

Shall I wait by the grave

For my lost lover's kiss?



Stop the bell! Stop the bell!

I've no tears left to cry

Must I stay here in hell?

Lord above, let me die



Heaven have mercy!

Heaven have mercy!

Heaven have mercy!
