She's fallen from grace 
Somewhere in space 
The twilight has come and there is no tomorrow 
And night after day 
She's driftin' away 
And time is run out for our lady of sorrow 

Lady don't you cry 
This time you'll stay high 

Lately when I've seen her 
She would smile as if to say 
That the worst was over 
And there'd soon be brighter days 
But I'm wonderin', I'm wonderin' 

She goes to the door 
And ask just once more 
She gives everything she could beg, steal or borrow 
And each time is her last 
But time moves too fast 
And time has run out for our lady of sorrow 

Lady don't you frown 
This time you won't come down 

Just today I watched them as 
They carried her away 
And I can only hope that she 
Has found a brighter day 
But I'm wonderin', I'm wonderin' 
Had there been someone near to care what then?
