Joy has left my home
She said she'll visit sometimes,
But I am not alone
I've got sorrow
Sorrow couldn't stay,
She said she's very busy,
But I am not alone,
I've got despair.
Despair, my dear friend
You say you'll never leave me
I hold you with both arms
You're all I've got.

Joy has left my home
She said she'll visit sometimes,
But I am not alone
I've got sorrow
Sorrow couldn't stay,
She said she's very busy,
But I am not alone,
I've got despair.
Despair, my dear friend
You say you'll never leave me
I hold you with both arms
You're all I've got.
