Ray Price - Beyond The Last Mile lyrics

I'm watching the clock tick the hours away

they say that I must hang at the dawn of the day

But why should I fear death for it's life anew

for dying only takes me much nearer to you

You left me in anger to walk by the sea

And when they found your body they blamed it on me

But you know they were wrong dear so wait for awhile

For we shall be together beyond the last mile

[ fiddle ]

The stars hide their face to make way for the sun

And soon death it shall claim me and make us as one

While others are walking the streets with a smile

Then I know I'll be walking beyond the last mile

The chaplain is making his last plea to God

Soon up the numbered steps to the scaffold I'll trod

My footsteps won't falter I'll walk with a smile

For I know you'll be waiting beyond the last mile
