Dead Man Walking

Intro: Standing at the burning house - Memories goin' round Of what he's done and what should be - Feels like fallin' down Emotions keep on running wild - While loosing all around Life seems like a tragedy - Lost what he had found Packed up his belongings - Saddled up his horse Left this town in agony - Left with this remorse A gunman on his way to hell - While the sun is going down Has to do what must be done - Deadman on the run Until the time has come Had to carry on Always on the run Shadows of the past - It seems like a Deadman walkin' His loneliness is more than pain - Drying out his heart Former leader of the pack - Looking for a start He used to work hard every day - Rugged and handsome pal Salvation, it has crossed his way - With the one so hard to find Time for joy has been so short - And good has changed to bad Beloved wife died in a year - And took with her his lad He don't know what he's fighting for - Glory and for fame His past is buried in Lamar - The whole world is to blame Until the time has come Had to carry on Always on the run Shadows of the past - It seems like a Deadman... All his life, all his pride The bleeding never ends All the shadows of the dead Will get him now at last He looks for reasons in the planes - Trouble's all he found Just a man of circumstance - Gets back up the ground The hangman has its bloody rope - Tied around his neck The reaper is gonna have to wait - Your number is not up yet Until the time has come Had to carry on Until the time has come Shadows of the dead - Well, it seems like a Deadman... Until the time has come Had to carry on Until the time has come Shadows of the past - It seems like a Deadman walkin'
