Billy Joel - Cross to Bear lyrics

Well I know you got your troubles But I've got problems of my own It's all relative you see, what happiness should be And we got to work it out alone I know about your situation And I know all about your pain But you know it's true though it's no comfort to you Into each life must fall some rain We all have our cross to bear We all walk in darkness sometimes Though I know it don't seem fair We all have our cross to bear You know I hate to see you cry I hate to see you cry now Because I had my share of tears And though it may sound cool, you know I'd be a fool To let it slide a few more years Listen, I just got to have my freedom And if that's giving you the blues That's the price you pay, Lord, there ain't no other way But to get down on your knees and pay your dues 'Cause don't you know We all have our cross to bear We all knuckle under sometimes Oh, everybody gets his share We all have our cross to bear Oh, I just got to have my freedom And if that's giving you the blues Well, that's the price you pay, Lord, there ain't no other way But to get down on your knees and pay your dues 'Cause don't you know We all have our cross to bear Oh, we all walk in darkness sometimes Oh, everybody gets his share, mmm 'Cause we all have our cross to bear
