To Suffer And To Smile Lyrics - The Black League

[Florida, Jarva et al.] 

[Lead - MV] 

I can remember one SUMMER so LIFE-LIKE 

So LONG AGO that it probably wasn't even REAL 

Yet a CONSTANT LONGING keeps tormenting my DREAMS 

Ignorance is bliss. 

Ignorance is bliss. 

All ye YOUNG ONES down there by the waterfront 

They cannot see the SKYLINE 

Turning DARK above their heads 

As the BLACK CLOUDS keep gathering around them Looming over like a 

LIFE-LONG MALEDICTION 

Ignorance is bliss. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

[Lead - AR Ignorance is bliss.] 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

To suffer. To suffer. To suffer and to smile. 

Ignorance is bliss. 

I can remember what a WISE MAN once said to me: 

"I tell you to ENJOY LIFE. 

I wish I could but it's TOO LATE now!" 

It's too late.
