Oh mother iâm scared to die
where, where do my good deeds lie
Oh father iâm scared to live
takes more than iâve got to give
oh sister my voice is weak
oh brother i long for sleep
oh hunger i know you well
my cruel friend is a funeral bell
and it rings in the day
and it rings in the evening
oh i could pray but it wonât stop you leaving
shadow in black you are grim from your reaping
oh canât you spare just a day for the weeping
oh lover i know youâre there
and iâd follow you anywhere
oh give me a hand to hold
so that i may face the cold
cause it rings in the day
and it rings in the evening
oh i could pray but it wontâ stop you leaving
shadow in black you are grim from from your reaping
oh cant you spare just a day for the weeping
cause it rings in the day
and it rings in the evening
oh i could pray but it wonât stop you leaving
shadow in black you are grim from your reaping
oh canât you spare just a day for the weeping
oh canât you spare just a day for the weeping
