Sorrow's Child |
Sorrow’s child sits by the river |
Sorrow’s child hears not the water |
Sorrow’s child sits by the river |
Sorrow’s child hears not the water |
And just when you feel as though |
You’ve got strength enough to stand |
Sorrow’s child all weak and strange |
Stands waiting at your hand |
Sorrow’s child steps in the water |
Sorrow’s child you follow after |
Sorrow’s child wades in deeper |
Sorrow’s child invites you under |
And just when you thought as though |
All your tears were wept and done |
Sorrow’s child grieves not what has passed |
But all the past still yet to come |
Sorrow’s child sits by the water |
Sorrow’s child your arms enfold her |
Sorrow’s child you’re loathe to befriend her |
Sorrow’s child but in sorrow surrender |
And just when is seems as though |
All your tears were at an end |
Sorrow’s child lifts up her hand |
And she brings it down again |
