Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
I ain't gonna let myself be treated this way
Come, children, dry your father's eyes
Come, children, dry your father's eyes
Come, children, dry your father's eyes
Tell him there ain't no reason to cry
I don't really care about people in despair
I don't really wanna know
I don't really care about people in despair
I wanna be alone
My children need new shoes for their feet
My children need new shoes for their feet
My children need new shoes for their feet
They ain't gonna walk around bare feet on the street
Children, put your mother to sleep
Come, children, put your mother to sleep
Come, children, put your mother to sleep
Tell her there ain't no reason to weep
I'm walking on water
and I hope I can talk to you one last time
I'm walking on water
after that you will always be mine
I don't really care about people in despair
I don't really wanna know
I don't really care about people in despair
I wanna be alone
