jenny owen youngs – long black veil lyrics

Loading...

ten years ago, on a cold dark night
someone was k!lled, ‘neath the town hall light
there were few at the scene, but they all agreed
that the slayer who ran looked a lot like me

she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me

the judge said hon, what is your alibi
if you were somewhere else, you would not have to die
i spoke not a word, though it meant my life
i’d been in the arms of my best friend’s wife

she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me

oh, the scaffold is high and eternity’s near
she stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
but late at night, when the north wind blows
in a long black veil, she cries o’er my bones

she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me

she walks these hills in a long black veil
she visits my grave when the night winds wail
n0body knows, n0body sees
n0body knows but me
