Sorrow Lyrics

There's a cold wind in the city, there's a darkness on the land There's rust upon the slipways where the great ships used to stand There's a queue that waits from day's first light 'til disappointed night And there's sorrow once again, sorrow once again There's sorrow once again to greet tomorrow And I used to trust in providence and plan for better times But now there's even more of us waiting in the lines And we could build you anything you choose from ships to patent leather shoes And there's sorrow once again, sorrow once again There's sorrow once again to greet tomorrow And you promised me tomorrows, you led me by the hand Out of the vale of sorrows into the promised land And everyone had work to do except maybe the odd million or two And there's sorrow once again, sorrow once again There's sorrow once again to greet tomorrow And there's rumours by the score they've got vacancies galore And if you want to find out more Freephone Heaven 2-8-4 Seems they want angels who can sing and they'll supply their wings Though there's references desired there's no experience required Though the stipulation read: "All applicants must be dead"...
