Linda Ronstadt - Sorrow Lives Here Lyrics

If you see a friend and he tries to say

A girl we once knew is losing her way

It's true

I may be blue

I've seen the best years of life go through

A man that I love

And another I need

Both men have helped make the sad life I lead



Sorrow lives here in my heart

It haunts me when I sleep

I can't keep the thought of you from my dreams

Everything seems to spin all around

But I can't see

Whether it happens with or without me



Remember how perfume, my gown and silk gloves

Had teased your heart so and brought out your love

It's done

Night's breeze has blown

A chill up my spine

The world was mine

Then haughty and high

To bide my time

'Til all of my hopes

Just wish you were mine



Sorrow lives here in my heart

It haunts me when I sleep

I can't keep the thought of you from my dreams

Everything seems to spin all around

But I can't see

Whether it happens with or without me
