08. Soul Survivor

So Long Ago The Garden
by Larry Norman



 

 

I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy
oh yes I need somebody's sympathy
don't leave me here alone don't let me be
the soul survivor of this tragedy

my life was good when she was hanging around
my love was flying so high and free
but when she left my dreams came tumbling down
now I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy

I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy
oh yes I need somebody's sympathy
don't leave me here alone don't let me be
the soul survivor of this tragedy

I'm trying so hard to forget my pain
and leave my past behind
but when your life is suddenly filled with rain
you keep remembering how the sun used to shine
and i can't stand the loneliness the constant emptiness
why has unhappiness come into my life
I spend my mornings walking and thinking
and cry my evenings late into the night

I never knew that things could go so wrong
until this happened to me
if you're in love you better hold on strong
or be the soul survivor of this tragedy
I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy
oh yes I need somebody's sympathy
don't leave me here alone don't let me be
the soul survivor of this tragedy
