You sold your soul to make ends meet
Worked night and day for a crust to eat
Tried to be strong, tried to belong
Swallowed your fears with each new dawn
So many burdens laid at your feet
But don't you cry no more today....
And day by day you're in retreat
Too old to work but too poor to eat
The nights are so long, living alone
You can't recall the day or times long gone
Signed it all away so no-one can see
But don't you cry no more today....
