Lyrics Gloomy Sunday (Sombre Dimanche) - Paul Robeson

Gloomy Sunday (Sombre Dimanche)

Sadly one Sunday I waited and waited
With flowers in my arms for the dream, I’d created
I waited 'til dreams, like my heart, were all broken
The flowers were all dead and the words were unspoken
The grief that I knew was beyond all consoling
The beat of my heart was a bell that was tolling
Saddest of Sundays
Then came a Sunday when you came to find me
They bore me to church and I left you behind me
My eyes could not see one I wanted to love me
The earth and the flowers are forever above me
The bell tolled for me and the wind whispered, «Never!»
But you, I have loved and I bless you forever
Last of all Sundays
