Shadow of the Tyburn Tree - Heaven & Earth

My love’s been taken away from me

Bound in chains by the king’s decree

A child of God accused of witchery

Imprisoned by their lies

The winds of fear

Are blowing strong

They’ll take her life

Even though they’re wrong

As the sun will rise

At the break of dawn

On the gallows she will die

Oh how cruel the hands of fate

Oh heaven stop this grave mistake

And grant this wish that I shall make

Instead of her, my life they take

Salvation lies too far

So beyond this world our hearts will twine

Even stronger still, yours and mine

Love immortal for all time

Written in the stars

Oh how cruel the hands of fate

Chorus

By the moonlight I wait for eternity

And pray that my love is returned to me

There’s no man with a heavier heart than me

In the shadow of the Tyburn tree

Oh magic moon

Won’t you stay and hold back the sun

For my love and I, on a moonbeam will fly

And the morning never comes

And the morning never comes

Chorus

By the moonlight I wait for eternity

And pray that my love is returned to me

There’s no man with a heavier heart than me

In the shadow of the Tyburn tree

By the moonlight I wait for eternity

With a hpoeful heart and a desparate plea

And a prayer that my love will be set free

From the shadow of the Tyburn tree
