Tom Paxton - Pandora's Box lyrics

Night pa**ed so slowly All the dreams were bad Pandora's box fell down It broke open All of my memories Bound to make me sad I heard every unkind word I'd spoken Hard though I tried I couldn't get myself awake Hard though I cried I would remember each mistake Prayin' for sunrise Prayers were all I had Prayers and all the promises I'd broken Hmmmmmm Hmmmmmm How can I make it Feelin' this a-way Not at all convinced To go on living No place to go to No excuse to stay One more soul in bad need of forgiving Hard though I tried I couldn't get myself awake Hard though I cried I would remember each mistake Hangin' on till sunrise Livin' day by day Prayin' for grace and faced with a need for living Hangin' on till sunrise Livin' day by day Prayin' for grace and faced with a need for living
