Lyrics
I was born on a river of pain.
I wandered streets with the deranged.
One night I looked up and saw the moon.
Not knowing better, I moaned and swooned.
I feel I done wrong,
But I know I can't do no less.
Ages of time have rolled by.
The finicky moon has spit in my eye.
The storms gathered, the rains fell,
Wandering streets again for time beyond tell.
Then the sun came, through darkened skies
It warmed me, and hushed my cries.
I feel I done wrong,
But I know I can't do no less.
Your pain's shadow haunts me
Ever more for the joy you bring.
Why oh why?
I hid from the sun.
Why oh why?
I chose shadows.
Why oh why?
Dark times a comin'
Why oh why?
And I love you dearly.
Never have I seen such beauty.
Never have I known something so pure.
