Édith Piaf - Heaven Have a Mercy lyrics

No more smiles, no more tears
No more prayers, no more fears
Nothing left, why go on
When your lover is gone shout with one
Ring the bells throughout the towns
And the farms will the shouts and the bells
Bring him back to my arms
Must each man go to war evermore, evermore
While some lone woman stands
Empty heart, empty hands
When the time came to part
And he kissed me goodbye
From the depths of my heart
Came a great lonely cry:

Heaven have mercy! Heaven have mercy!

Miners came they carved his name
Upon a cross i remember the dance
Where we first fell in love
How we whirled 'round and 'round
While the stars danced above
We would walk by the shore
Watch the ships sail away
Lovers need nothing more
Just a new dream each day
So we dreamed of a home
With a garden so fine
And a son with his eyes
And a nose just like mine
Now it's done, why be brave?
Why should I live like this?
Shall I wait by the grave
For my lost lover's kiss?

Stop the bell! Stop the bell!
I've no tears left to cry
Must I stay here in hell?
Lord above, let me die

Heaven have mercy! Heaven have mercy!
Heaven have mercy!
