Nick Cave "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 it seems as though You've got strength enough to stand, sorrow's child 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 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, and your arms enfold her Sorrow's child, you're loathe to befriend her Sorrow's child, but in sorrow surrender And just when it's seems as though All your tears were at an end, sorrow's child Sorrow's child, lifts up her hand And she brings it down again Sorrow's child Sorrow's child Sorrow's child ...
