One for Sorrow

Cross my fingers that you'll break my sorrows Oh please break my sorrows While you can He kissed me softly just to say Good woman, you have made me A foolish man And we feared our bodies might get cold If we did not keep hold of each other Like we did Palm to my neck hold me now For silence made a captive of my mouth Somewhere on that far off shore In the sweet by and by, I know I'll see you again One, two years, or even more I'm sure we'll be much older Than when we met And I wish that I could make amends For all the wrong I've said Throw my stones in the riverbed But you are so far away And I have got to learn to be okay With my own echo
