The bad and the beautiful

Winter has come
To seal my fate
Just a year ago I took that final step
Took a gun and cut my sweet young lover down
The newspaper said that the bad and the beautiful
Carry the burden of love

Now I simply refuse to cry
With a secret I'll take to my grave
For I have but an hour to go
Now the hangman approaches death row

Oh Billy love your child has grown
I only hope that he won't be his mother's son
With a vein of madness poisoning his soul
Regrets I have none but the bad and the beautiful
Carry the burden of love

Now I simply refuse to cry...

Goodbye to the world I love
You have done me no good, you know
My lullaby is a bell that tolls
As the hangman approaches death row

Now I simply refuse to cry...
