Men They Couldn't Hang, The - Parted From You

A beautiful song by The Men They Couldn't Hang from their album "How Green Is The Valley".

Lyrics:

An endless road of breathtaking sights
Another town, another night
Where telephone bills replace bottles of pills
Love hurts and your voice thrills
Love hurts and your voice thrills

Now all this frustration brings a feeling of pain
When I put down the phone I want to call you again
When I write you a letter, when I send you a card
I'm soft, my body grows hard
I'm soft, my body grows hard

Mountains and rivers and beautiful views
Mean nothing to me, parted from you
Sunshine or snow it all becomes grey
As I think of you while I'm away

Now days become weeks, or so it seems
But night's a release, with you in my dreams
But I wake, you're away and I think of how far
I feel like I'm trapped in a jar
I feel like I'm trapped in a jar

And mountains and rivers and beautiful views
Mean nothing to me, parted from you
Sunshine or snow it all becomes grey
As I think of you while I'm away

What a beautiful song. Next Saturday I will be seeing them live again, almost 10 years after they visited Porto...

I hope they will play this song. Have a nice time there!

I love this song and an amazing video to go with it.

Thanks a lot for sharing. I would love to know where some of the views are.

Always reminds me of Scotland but having spent a fair bit of time in South Africa recently a few could even be there.

What a wonderful and beautiful world we live in but people will always be what makes it extra special. .

Thank you very much for your kind words. I know where some of the photos were taken from, so if you are still interested I can message you..

Very gentle, simple but beautiful and heartaching song. Found myself singing it at the top of my voice rowing on Lake Windermere a few weeks ago - so checked out the video. Thanks for posting
