Well I can hear the world a-turning
 To the sound of a broken wheel
 And I listen as I learn how to feel
 Somewhere there's a shadowed window
 Reflecting on the both of us
 Showing seven different shades of loss of trust

 Sweet embrace
 All my days
 I've been holding on
 I'd give it all but they just wanna take
 Sweet embrace
 All my days
 I've been holding on
 I'd give it all but this world just wants to take

 Sorrow, sorrow, let me go
 Sorrow, sorrow, let me go

 Birds are singing songs in the morning
 The songs of sticks and words
 As I'm waiting for that broken wheel to turn
 Staring at my own reflection
 Wondering what I'd see
 If I let my imperfections get a hold of me

 Sorrow, sorrow, let me go
 Sorrow, sorrow, let me go

 Sweet embrace
 All my days
 I've been holding on
 I'd give it all but they just wanna take
 Sweet embrace
 All my days
 I've been holding on
 I'd give it all but this world just wants to take

 (Sorrow, sorrow)
 Sweet embrace
 (Let me go)
 All my days
 (Sorrow, sorrow)
 I've been holding on
 (Let me go)
 I'd give it all but they just wanna take
 (Sorrow, sorrow)
 Sweet embrace
 (Let me go)
 All my days
 (Sorrow, sorrow)
 I've been holding on
 (Let me go)
 I'd give it all but this world just wants to take
