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)
|
|

Pack Up Your Sorrows
