They bring me food and water In this room is all i know But my thirsty spirit keeps me In your mercy where i go I use to do what made me happy Now my weary hands are tied To a struggle to remember Where i am and why i cry Chorus All my diamonds have been stolen All my clothes are very few My poor daughter she comes to hold me Singin' hymns forever true Singin' hymns forever true My home and all i worked for Has been sold and surely gone Only strangers come to see me And they never stay too long My poor dead husband was a kind man Workin' numbers was his game I got lost in separation But he took me back again Chorus Turnaround 2x Time has many troubles But many years will tell the truth In the mem'ries of all who suffered Abandoned and confused.
