Sorrow`s Child Lyrics

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 it seems 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
