Sorrow (For Leonard And William)

I've been waiting here for her to form my sentence

And I haven't said a word of anger here

And I didn't see her run until it hit me

She's been living right behind me all these years

I never found an ending to my suffering

She opened every door I should have closed

With the mercy of a hundred hungry animals

Sorrow she shows dressed in ribbons and bows

So baby, I know what I know

So baby, I know what I know

Can we fall apart together tonight?

I studied every wrinkle on the pillow at my head

And sucked the sunken breath from deep within

She carved into the body of my memory and said

"Let not your sorrows die though I am dead"

I'm living with her now inside the temple

She moves enough to let my patience grow

And then I hear the ringing in the tower

Sorrow she shows dressed in ribbons and bows

So baby, I know what I know

So baby, I know what I know

Can we fall apart together tonight?

So baby, I know what I know

So baby, I know what I know

Can we fall apart together tonight?

Can we fall apart together?
