Gloomy Sunday

Alternate version with lyrics by Desmond Carter.
As recorded by Paul Robeson; Diamanda Galás; Hildegarde:


Sadly one Sunday I waited and waited
With flowers in my arms
for the dream I'd created
I waited 'til dreams,
like my heart, were all broken
The flowers were all dead
and the words were unspoken
The grief that I knew
was beyond all consoling
The beat of my heart
was a bell that was tolling

Saddest of Sundays

Then came a Sunday
when you came to find me
They bore me to church
and I left you behind me
My eyes could not see
one I wanted to love me
The earth and the flowers
are forever above me
The bell tolled for me
and the wind whispered, "Never!"
But you I have loved
and I bless you forever

Last of all Sundays
