This may be the saddest song I'll ever play
in my living years.
Looking for the words to fill the page
blinded by my tears
even though I've come to understand
things don't always work out like we plan
sometimes love slips right through our hands
and not all troubled waters can be dammed
no, not all troubled waters can be dammed.
This may be the saddest song you'll hear today
as nighttime quickly nears
clinging to the memories of yesterday
yet still they disappear
even though you say you understand
your life didn't go the way you planned
And time is slipping through your hands
not all troubled waters can be dammed
no not all troubled waters can be dammed.
when the rain keeps falling
all around you
seems like it's never going to end
the rising tide will soon surround you
still you're not alone my friend
This may be the saddest song I'll ever play
in my living years
still looking for the words to fill the page
blinded by my fears
even though I've come to understand
things don't always work out like we plan
sometimes love slips right through our hands
and not all troubled waters can be dammed
no, not all troubled waters can be dammed.
when the rain keeps falling
all around you
seems like it's never going to end
the rising tide will soon surround you
still you're not alone my friend
