Happy In The Sorrow Key Lyrics - One Lost Day - Indigo Girls

As I lay my burden down now 

In the cradle of an elegy 

In the shotgun shape of this life 

I'm happy happy in the sorrow key 

Hadrian's wall was mighty 

Not so mighty it didn't fall 

Ii roamed among its sod and stone 

To wonder how we come apart 

The earth it holds the human toll 

The heavens bow to the gravity 

The bursting heart the bleeding brain 

In grief we shift tectonically

As I lay my burden down 

In the cradle of an elegy 

In the shotgun shape of this life 

I'm happy happy in the sorrow key 

Three days moored in Singapore 

The ancient lure of currency 

The rain came down the trade winds blew 

And held me anchored to my dues 

Slumbering I felt a tug 

I ran to little India 

To find a beggar's clarity 

And eat the spice of deities 

Photos 

When I close my eyes 

Imagine us dead and gone 

The bright light of kingdom come 

Yeah but I can't see 

Take it out of my hands 

I want to know the truth 

The eye of the eagle 

To deliver me 

I'm happy in the sorrow 

I'm happy in the sorrow
