Little sorrow
Little pain
When you gonna go away?
Cause I've been holding way too long
Don't think my hands are built that strong
In silence I wait
But you keep on knockin' at my door

One of these days
Something's gonna wake me up
I'm gonna hold on to it
One of these days
No more will I be
Swept up by the current

Midnight hour
Calls me on
Makes me sing this sad, sad song
Little sorrow
Little pain
Tell me, tell me when's it gonna end?

You see my glee's asleep
But you keep on tuggin' at my sleeve
