The Hanging Tree (Remastered) Lyrics
I came to town to search for gold
And I brought with me a memory
And I seem to hear the night wind cryGo hang your dreams on the hangin` tree
Your dreams of love that could never be
(Never be)
Hang your faded dreams on the hangin` tree
(The hangin` tree)
I searched tor gold and I found my gold
And I found a girl who loved just me
And I wished that I could love her too
But I`d left my heart on the hangin` tree
I`d left my heart with a memory
(A memory)
And a faded dream on the hangin` tree
(The hangin` tree)
Now there were men who craved my gold
(Ooh ooh)
And meant to take my gold from me
(Ooh ooh)
When a man is gone he needs no gold
So they carried me to the hangin` tree
To join my dreams and a memory
(A memory)
Yes, they carried me to the hangin` tree
(The hangin` tree)
To really live you must almost die
(What do I)
And it happened just that way with me
(What do I)

They took the gold and set me free
And I walked away from the hangin` tree
I walked away from the hangin` tree
(The hangin` tree)
And my own true love, she walked with me
(Aah aah aah aah)
That`s when I knew that the hangin` tree
Was a tree of life, new life for me
(Aah aah, aah aah aah)
A tree of hope, new hope for me
A tree of love, new love tor me
The hangin` tree
(The hangin` tree)
The hangin` tree
