Girl Of Mysterious Sorrow Lyrics - Marc Cohn

I'm coming to see you tomorrow sometime 

Gonna bring you some roses, gonna tear off the vines 

Gonna talk to the wind that blows through the trees 

Kiss you like always from down on my knees 

Gonna ask you some questions, get no reply 

Wipe all the tears falling down from my eyes 

'Cause the one that I wanted, I never could know 

Girl of mysterious sorrow 

Girl of mysterious sorrow 

Gonna park in the street, gonna open the gate 

Walk to the spot where you always wait 

I'll be shaking my head like I usually do 

'Cause the name and the dates tell me nothing about you 

But I'll sit in the shadows and let you explain 

All of the sadness and all of the pain 

Did it all seem so hopeless you just had to let go? 

Girl of mysterious sorrow 

Girl of mysterious sorrow 

Mysterious, mysterious 

Mysterious, mysterious 

Yeah, I'm coming to see you but I really can't stay 

There's just a few things I needed to say 

Like why were you hiding so much of yourself? 

Why were you living for somebody else? 

Well, I know that I've always been looking for you 

Lately it's not such a hard thing to do 

'Cause it seems like inside every woman I know 

There's a girl of mysterious sorrow 

A girl of mysterious sorrow 

Mysterious, mysterious 

Mysterious sorrow
