Warth Lane

Verse 1:
The 22nd of December
We were dressing up the tree
The radio was playing caroling
The music warm and comforting
Then there came a knock upon a door
Outside there stood a man in uniform
He asked me "Son are you parents in?"
A friend of your has had an accident

Verse 2:
He said I'll speak to your mother and father
There are some things you shouldn't hear
I left the room where they could speak to him
Why I should leave I wasn't sure
Through the walls I heard my mother cry
"Oh my God, he's just a little boy"
Someone found him high up in a tree
Hanging by his neck for all to see

Chorus:
On no, no, no, don't leave us crying
On no, no, no, don't leave us crying

Verse 3:
We were closest of young friends
Our thoughts and hopes, we shared together
He dreamed he'd race a thoroughbred
T ride that horse and be a winner
It couldn't be, his body was too weak
The sickness that he had could take him down
He took his life before he died in pain

Chorus:
On no, no, no, don't leave us crying
On no, no, no, don't leave us crying

On no, no, no, don't leave us crying
On no, no, no, you left us crying....
