Singer of sorrow
Stirrer of the pot
We're all just trying to get by
Get by

Sitting like a still life before me
Poet and a playwright
Sunlight through the trees
And you, you might as well speak your peace
Singer of sorrow
Understands the plot
We're all just trying
Trying to get by
Get by

Falling like some fallen angel
Martyr in the square
With his feet to the fire
You, you might as well hold your peace

Singer of sorrow
Prisoner of desire
Oh, we're all just trying
Trying to get by
Get by

Sitting like a still life before me
Poet and a playwright
Sunlight through the trees
Falling like some fallen angel
Oo
Might as well let me
Love you
Just let me love you

Singer of sorrow
Sunlight through the trees
Singer of sorrow
Sunlight through the trees
Singer of sorrow
Sunlight through the trees
Sitting like a still life before me
Poet and a playwright
Don't mean that much to me
Singer of sorrow
Sunlight through the trees
Oh
Uh uh uh
Yeah
Come on
Yeah
