Sorrow

You chain yourself to a time and place
The closest you can get to one more embrace
Frozen, holding on
To the breath you took when they had gone
Night into night, no dawn

Then you turn the page, and say goodbye
Look out ahead and wipe the tears from your eyes
Breath out, breath in
Pray the old you comes back again
And day by day, you mend

I still go under from time to time
When the waves get rough in this heart of mine
Guess that's the way it goes
Sorrow
That's the way it goes
Sorrow

Last words on repeat
The closest you can get to hearing their voice speak
Play back, re-wind
Sometimes you laugh, sometimes you cry
But year by year you get by

Then one day as you're looking back
The smiles outnumber the waves that crash
Golden Memories
That once brought you down, bring you up with ease
And bit by bit, you find peace

I still go under from time to time
When the waves get rough in this heart of mine
That's the way it goes
Sorrow
Sorrow
That's the way it goes
Sorrow
Sorrow, Sorrow
Guess that's the way it goes
Sorrow
That's the way it goes, sorrow
Sorrow
Sorrow
