Lamentation Paroles

I'm just trying to make it through the day
He said you better not come 'round
me before too long

[Chorus]
Whoa ooh
Love is crying (whoa oh)
Love is dying (whoa oh)
Love is crying (whoa oh)

Um

I saw my sister, she did me wrong
I had a smile up on my face
But hers were so cold
I said sister please don't go
I'm just trying to say hello
She said you better not come 'round me
Before too long and I said
Open up your heart hurry don't delay
Before the chance to save
the world is gone away

I asked my father, Lord what's wrong
Through his tears I heard him say
Child be strong

'Cause the world I'm trying to save
Done turned me away
But they better come 'round
my way before too long

[Chorus]
