Sorrow
They say sorrow floats
So I put mine in boats
And float it away –
Couldn’t bear it to stay.
You can’t drown sorrow though
As the records all show
If you drink to forget
You’ll remember it yet.
When I float it away
It still comes back one day
Often worse than before
Beating down my mind’s door.
So there’s no other way
Face your sorrows today
Deal with each one by one
’Til your sorrows have gone
