The Sound of Life Leaves with the Breeze

1st Verse:
I am feeling a little low, a little low, sweet baby,
Can you come a little closer, and talk to me?
I'm trying to figure it all out,
Without all this damn doubt,
I am feeling a little low, a little low, on my knees.

Chorus:
What a shame, that such a beautiful thing could die,
It's like watching a life-giving stream dry;
And nothing sings, and nothing breathes,
As the sound of life leaves with the breeze.

What a shame, that love is not endless,
It's like trying to hold onto a phantom caress;
And nothing warms you, in the deep freeze,
As the sound of life leaves with the breeze.

2nd Verse:
We've been hurting a long time, such a long time, woman,
I don't think we can get any closer, cuz we don't know what we are doin';
Nothing left but groans and mumbles,
Our happy home as fallen to rubble,
We've been hurting a long time, such a long time, and
it's growin'.

Repeat Chorus:
What a shame, that such a beautiful thing could die,
It's like watching a life-giving stream dry;
And nothing sings, and nothing breathes,
As the sound of life leaves with the breeze.

What a shame, that love is not endless,
It's like trying to hold onto a phantom caress;
And nothing warms you, in the deep freeze,
As the sound of life leaves with the breeze.
