Iris Dement Pack Up Your Sorrows lyrics

No use crying, talking to a stranger,

naming the sorrow you`ve seen

Too many bad times, too many sad times

Nobody knows what you mean



Chorus:

But if somehow you could pack up your sorrows

and give them all to me

You would lose them, I know how to use them

Give them all to me



No use rambling, walking in the shadows,

trailing a wandering star

No one beside you, no one to hide you

and nobody knows what you are



(Chorus)



No use gambling, running in the darkness,

Looking for a spirit that`s free

Too many wrong times, too many long times

Nobody knows what you see



(Chorus)



No use roaming, going by the roadside,

Seeking a satisfied mind

Too many highways, too many byways,

and nobody`s walking behind



(Chorus)
