|
Momma, please tell me truly |
|
Even though life ain't what it should be |
|
Where can |
|
I go to fix these things inside' |
|
Cause, momma, it's hard to feel free |
|
When it's you running through me |
|
Just take me now or throw away the key |
|
And so it goes |
|
Life isn't easy and truth's a dreadful beauty |
|
And everyone wants to know where they go |
|
When they die |
|
Momma, I can't help feeling |
|
That this pain is of your willing |
|
Cool rain from a cloud of strickenine |
|
But maybe, just maybe |
|
This soul will die before my body |
|
And I'll live on earth in peace for evermore |
|
And so it goes |
|
Lately I've thought about me |
|
Separate from your woeful morning |
|
And I can see a light ringing through the sky |
|
It sings of coming glory |
|
Strangely tied to this awful story |
|
It lifts the heart and gives us wings to fly |
|
And so it goes |
