Greatest Sorrow Of All (Larry W. Jones 03/15/2007) (song#4518)

Sometimes you feel glad
Sometimes you feel sad
Sometimes life isn't worthwhile
Things can make you so mad
Some things just don't add
And then sorrow replaces a smile

There are sorrows we know
Through the years as we go
Some of them we can't explain
Like, why do sorrows cling
And sunshine never bring
A red rose instead of the rain

There's sorrow when you're lonely
And when you're far from home
There's sorrow when a mother's only
Son decides it's time to roam

There's sorrow when sweethearts quarrel
And all those tears start to fall
But when you lose someone sweet as laurel
That's the greatest sorrow of all

There's sorrow when sweethearts quarrel
And all those tears start to fall

That's the greatest sorrow of all
