rosie tucker - sorrow sleeps lyrics

Loading...

i lie on the linoleum floor of the kitchen
thinking about my children’s children
and what will they sing when they’re scrubbing their dishes and will they ever be happy
well i poured my sins to a fluorescent sky
and the stove caught my tears
and the sink saw me cry
will my children know this old ache by and bye and who will be there to listen?

well this i know
this i know
by the light of the morning
i swear it is so
sorrow sleeps sometimes
curls up in the dark and closes her eyes
sorrow sleeps sometimes
until then i’ll hold you tight
until then i’ll hold you tight

well the house is empty of sound except for the pounding of blood through my chest
i took too many years to lay to rest the notion that i am broken
i prayed every night for a soul of lead  god take my pain
god leave me dead
and he didn’t heed a word i said
but anointed my forehead with hope

so this i know
this i know
by the light of the morning
i swear it is so
sorrow sleeps sometimes
curls up in the dark and closes her eyes
sorrow sleeps sometimes
until then i’ll hold you tight
until then i’ll hold you tight
and i know that it hurts cause you’ve got a good heart
i know that it hurts cause you’ve got a good heart
i know that it hurts cause you’ve got a good heart

but this is not forever
this is not forever

well this i know
this i know
by the light of the morning
i swear it is so
sorrow sleeps sometimes
curls up in the dark and closes her eyes
sorrow sleeps sometimes
until then i’ll hold you tight
until then i’ll hold you tight
