River Of Sorrow Lyrics

River Of Sorrow lyrics

River of Sorrow



There is a black river

It passes by my window

And late at night

All dolled up like Christ

I walk the water

Between the piers



Singing

Oh

River of sorrow

River of time, river

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time



For we all know the baby has expired

Long ago she was pulled from the mire

And no precious liar or well-wisher

Can return the love that was stolen



Oh

River of sorrow

River of time, river

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time



Can you see the light

At the end of the dark passageway

Take me wit you towads this light

Into the darkness passing over the faces in the river

Hear me!

I'm whispering in your ear!



Oh

River of sorrow

Oh, river of time

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time



Oh

River of sorrow

Oh, river of time

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time
