And you know it's your lonesome heart today
And you know the empty grows wider today
And you know you're away from home today
And you know it's the knowing that feels so good
And you take all of your sadness today
And you put it right here in this bag today
And I'll put it on a stick and on my back today
And tomorrow I'll carry you sadness with mine
And I'll carry your sadness with me
And you know the hope don't fade away
And you know the hope don't fade away...
