Lyrics It's A Shame - Sarah Jane Morris

It's A Shame

I believe it is a shame,
I believe it is a shame.
Stopped the wind before it hit me.
A stone died in the sea.
You used to catch me lightly
Falling like a leaf.
Why can’t things just stay the same?
Why can’t things just stay the same?
Oh, the face of love keeps changing
And when you think you’ve got it tamed
Your eyes will open one day
And its up and its gone away.
I believe it is a shame.
Yes, I believe it is a shame
That you can say that it’s forever
And ever comes again.
But life will keep you bleeding
And standing in the rain.
I believe something remains.
Yes, I believe something remains
Coz when lovers ache together
Over many passing years
Something deep and knowing
Is born in all their tears.
I believe something remains.
Yes, I believe something remains.
Why can’t things just stay the same?
Why can’t things just stay the same?
I believe it is a shame.
i believe it is a shame.
Why can’t things just stay the same?
I believe something remains.
