What did that bad man put in you
did those rotten kids cross a line
I'm afraid I'll never understand baby
I'm so sorry you had such a bad time
well I had done some truly awful things
and you must be very terrified
well you have ever reason to be frightened
Since you've been reading my mind
Who am I to deny this moment
and who am I to even question it
there is a cross on the mountain baby
there is cross flowing over your head
please break this spell you have me under
every heart is a lonesome hunter
please break this spell you have me under oh yes
every heart is a lonesome hunter
Sparrows at your window
starlings at your door
magpies wherever we go
Is it blackbirds it's forevermore
I'm staring at a whole in my hands
and I've been staring at a whole in your head
and I've been feeling like a zombie baby
I am a zombie coming slow to your bed
Who am I to deny this moment
and who am I to even question it
there is a cross on the mountain baby
there is cross glowing over your head
please break this spell you have me under
every heart is a lonesome hunter
please break this spell you have me under oh yes
every heart is a lonesome hunter
is a lonesome hunter, is a lonesome hunter
every heart is a lonesome hunter
