The Song of Infinite Sadness - Strawbs

Nobody knows where the song came from

The song of infinite sadness

Perhaps it came from Babylon

I hold you to the heavens

Your soul will speak to me

As you leave

The longer the wait

The softer your words become

Nobody knows who wrote the song

The song of infinite sadness

Perhaps he carved his name in stone

Two songbirds fly in silence

Two songbirds share a voice

With one tongue

The sun gods awake

The songbirds will sing once more

Two lovers torn apart

A heart that beats alone

One heart shared between two lovers

The song of infinite sadness

Nobody knows who sang the song

The song of infinite sadness

Perhaps he lives within us all
