Mountain Of Sorrow Lyrics - Nanci Griffith

Easy come, easy go, anything but easy though 

You were here, now youre gone, thats the only thing I know 

And its just one more sorrow to throw upon the heap 

Mountain of sorrow steep 

What you see, the new me, changing right before your eyes 

Like a leaf on a tree letting go before she flies 

And its just one more sorrow to throw upon the heap 

Mountain of sorrow steep 

Mountain of sorrow, how high the top 

Must I climb, must I climb, ever blue 

Mountain of sorrow, when I can I stop 

And be fine knowing Im over you? 

Easy come, easy go, anything but easy though 

Said goodbye, knowing I would have rather said hello 

And its just one more sorrow to throw upon the heap 

Mountain of sorrow steep, mountain of sorrow steep
