Pink Floyd Lyrics...
Sorrow
Album: A Momentary Lapse Of Reason
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land-
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:
-
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,
-
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
-
-
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
-
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
-
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
-
It's not enough, it's not enough
-
-
His blood has frozen & curdled with fright
-
His knees have trembled & given way in the night
-
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
-
His step has faltered
-
-
One world, one soul
-
Time pass, the river rolls
-
-
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
-
And silent replies that swirl invitation
-
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
-
A grim intimation of what is to be
-
-
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
-
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
-
And silence that speaks so much louder that words,
-
Of promises broken
-
