Slough of despond

SLOUGH OF DESPOND

    I’ve spent my whole life

    Waiting for you

    Now I don’t want to lose you

     

    My life’s become an inner strife

    Cos I can’t believe it’s true

    I can’t believe it was you

     

    At a low ebb and weak

    No aim to fulfill

    Jealousy sent a chill

     

    Living in a sorry plight

    Plumbing the depths of sorrow

    Living in a sorry plight

    Plumbing the depths of sorrow

     

    Against the grain

    Speeding on that motorway

    The spot was on my way

     

    It triggered something in my brain

    Reviving my affliction

    In a state of commotion

     

    When you toss the dice

    Then I pay the price              

     

    Living in a sorry plight

    Plumbing the depths of sorrow

    Living in a sorry plight

    Plumbing the depths of sorrow
