The Lowering
If I had known, your heart was down That lonely day in Greenvilletown Then I would have been more concerned But later on, I truly learned How it can feel in every bone To really see that you're all alone But I'll, I'll kiss your head When death finds your bed And you are gone And if I had seen the way it would be I'd hush your cries when you came to me If I could do what I did to you The same to me, and I would love for you to see That I sleep with remorse And regret hangs round my door Forevermore And if I had known the lowering tide Was lowering with the way you felt inside If I had Known all hope was gone A broken heart and a broken home That pierced my lover's past And carved a lonely path for her to walk SongtexteSo if ever someone says to you "Life isn't fair, get used to it" Then you should say "Well it might be If folks like you would let it be" But I'll, I'll kiss your head When death becomes my bed And I am gone.
