Eliza Rickman - Maker of My Sorrow
from Margaret by Jason Webley and Friends
lyrics
MAKER OF MY SORROW
A good man is hard to find,
What’s his is yours and mine to throw.
He had an angry head,
He had a heavy heart to hold.
Poisoning the spring with an orchid
in his hand,
And a shadow on his thumb.
In the barrel of a gun,
Me, I will find my love.
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh,
Lord knows, where did he go?
Keeper of my heart’s joy,
Maker of my sorrow.
A good man is hard to find,
God knows how I have tried repose.
Give me my aching head,
Give me my broken heart and cold.
Woman cannot hold with a diamond
on my hand,
And the water on my tongue.
In the barrel of a gun,
Me, I resign my love.
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh,
Lord knows, where did he go?
Keeper of my heart’s joy,
Maker of my sorrow,
Dealer of my heavy hand,
Healer of my wounded heart.
Lord knows, where did he go?
Lord knows, where did he go?
Lord knows, where did he go?
A good man is hard to find,
What’s his is yours and mine to throw.
He had an angry head,
He had a heavy heart to hold.
Poisoning the spring with an orchid
in his hand,
And a shadow on his thumb.
In the barrel of a gun,
Me, I will find my love.
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh,
Lord knows, where did he go?
Keeper of my heart’s joy,
Maker of my sorrow.
A good man is hard to find,
God knows how I have tried repose.
Give me my aching head,
Give me my broken heart and cold.
Woman cannot hold with a diamond
on my hand,
And the water on my tongue.
In the barrel of a gun,
Me, I resign my love.
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh,
Lord knows, where did he go?
Keeper of my heart’s joy,
Maker of my sorrow,
Dealer of my heavy hand,
Healer of my wounded heart.
Lord knows, where did he go?
Lord knows, where did he go?
Lord knows, where did he go?
