"Always Suffering" lyrics

Always Suffering

Let's take a walk
Just you and me
And talk of days
Gone by

Across the fields
Under the trees
Let's speak of you
And I

While the whole world
Was wandering
We walked a steady line
When all our friends
Were wavering
We kept on trying

Now we're always suffering
Already lost
Always suffering
Already lost

Remember when
On summer days
I would sing
A lover's song

How you would smile
Shower me with praise
And the sun
Shined on

Now the rain is falling slow
And the nights grow long
And the train cries out
So hauntingly
She is gone

Now we're always suffering
Already lost
We're always suffering
Already lost

Please take these flowers
Smell the perfume
Let your soul
Come alive

Let there be hope
Hope in your heart
That our love
May revive
Ah, yeah

For life is but a chance
On a wind swept hill
And the seeds of love
Are swirling above
Let them be still
Oh, yeah

But we're always suffering
We're already lost
Always suffering
Already lost, yeah

Always suffering
We're already lost
