She's fallen from grace
Somewhere in space
The twilight has come and there is no tomorrow
And night after day
She's driftin' away
And time is run out for our lady of sorrow

Lady don't you cry
This time you'll stay high

Lately when I've seen her
She would smile as if to say
That the worst was over
And there'd soon be brighter days
But I'm wonderin', I'm wonderin'

She goes to the door
And ask just once more
She gives everything she could beg, steal or borrow
And each time is her last
But time moves too fast
And time has run out for our lady of sorrow

Lady don't you frown
This time you won't come down

Just today I watched them as
They carried her away
And I can only hope that she
Has found a brighter day
But I'm wonderin', I'm wonderin'
Had there been someone near to care what then?
