Sorrow

So it goes that autumn leaves are falling Soft upon the earth and winding streams There they paint the sidewalks I am walking I sing the long and lone, that's me Once I had a life full of adoring I fell in love, but it already was a shame One day she up and left me without warning Now I walk the world and sing this refrain Sorrow, only sorrow It's the only thing that cares for me Sorrow, only sorrow Leave me be, leave me be When the sun is setting in the valley And all the angels whisper to the plains Though my heart is weary, I am singing That I might find that everlasting day I could sail a wish upon the river To float upon the ripples and the waves Hoping that someday it might deliver Someone to wash my sorrows away Sorrow, only sorrow It's the only thing that cares for me Sorrow, only sorrow Leave me be, leave me be Only sorrow Leave me be, leave me be
