"Sorrow Lives Here" lyrics

Sorrow Lives Here

If you see a friend
And he tries to say
A girl we once knew
Is losing her way
It's true
I may be blue
I've seen the best years of life go through
A man that I love
And another I need
Both men have helped
Make the sad life I lead

Sorrow lives here in my heart
It haunts me when I sleep
I can't keep the thought of you
From my dreams
Everything seems
To spin all around
But I can't see
Whether it happens
With or without me

Remember how perfume
My gown and silk gloves
Had teased your heart so
And brought out your love
It's done
Night's breeze has blown
A chill up my spine
The world was mine
Then haughty and high
To bide my time
Till all of my hopes
Just wish you were mine

Sorrow lives here in my heart
It haunts me when I sleep
I can't keep the thought of you
From my dreams
Everything seems
To spin all around
But I can't see
Whether it happens
With or without me
