Lyrics
[Verse 1] Go son, go down to the water And see the women weeping there Then go up into the mountain The men, they are all weeping too Father, why are all the women weeping? They are all weeping for their men Then why are all the men there weeping? They are weeping back at them [Chorus 1] This is the weeping song A song in which to weep While all the men and women sleep This is the weeping song But I won't be weeping long [Verse 2] Father, why are all the children weeping? They are merely crying son Oh, are they merely crying, father? Yes, true weeping is yet to come [Chorus 2] This is a weeping song A song in which to weep While all the little children sleep This is a weeping song But I won't be weeping long Oh father, tell me, are you weeping? Your face seems it's wet to touch Oh, then I'm so sorry, father I never thought I'd hurt you so much [Chorus 3] This is a weeping song A song in which to weep While we rock ourselves to sleep This is a weeping song But I won't be weeping long [x5]
