Elizabeth & the Catapult Do Not Hang Your Head Lyrics Elizabeth & The Catapult lyrics

If ever I do hurt you
Make your willows bend
If ever I deceive you
Darlin, do not hang your head

If ever I betray you
Cast shadows on your light
I pray that you may pardon
And forgive me by and by

Oh my, baby cast another light
Oh my, baby cast another light

Cause in our greatest conquest
We are what fate depends
That's the heroes we once dreamt of
When we were children in our bed

And in our greatest triumphs
We cannot shake the fear

That the ones we once treasured
May at any given second disappear

My dear, may we never disappear
My dear, may we never disappear

Cause we are just animals
Living in the wild
But we too, can be civil friend
I'd like to try that now
I'd like to try that now

So I know I don't deserve you
But if I ever dare forget
May you help my heart remember
And bring me home again
