Girl of Mysterious Sorrow Lyrics


I'm coming to see you tomorrow sometime
Gonna bring you some roses, gonna tear off the vines
Gonna talk to the wind that blows through the trees
Kiss you like always from down on my kneesGonna ask you some questions, get no reply
Wipe all the tears falling down from my eyes
'Cause the one that I wanted, I never could know
Girl of mysterious sorrow
Girl of mysterious sorrowGonna park in the street, gonna open the gate
Walk to the spot where you always wait
I'll be shaking my head like I usually do
'Cause the name and the dates tell me nothing about youBut I'll sit in the shadows and let you explain
All of the sadness and all of the pain
Did it all seem so hopeless you just had to let go?
Girl of mysterious sorrow
Girl of mysterious sorrowMysterious, mysterious
Mysterious, mysteriousYeah, I'm coming to see you but I really can't stay
There's just a few things I needed to say
Like why were you hiding so much of yourself?

Why were you living for somebody else?Well, I know that I've always been looking for you
Lately it's not such a hard thing to do
'Cause it seems like inside every woman I know
There's a girl of mysterious sorrow
A girl of mysterious sorrowMysterious, mysterious
Mysterious sorrow

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Marc Cohn (born July 5, 1959 in Cleveland, Ohio) is an American singer-songwriter, best known for his song Walking In Memphis (often misattributed to Bruce Springsteen or Michael Bolton) from his self-titled 1991 album Marc Cohn.

According to the Walking In Memphis Songfacts, Cohn was discovered by Carly Simon in the mid-'80s when he was with a 14-piece band called The Supreme Court. Atlantic Records signed him in 1989, but the first attempts to record his debut album with Tracy Chapman 's producer David Kerschenbaum failed. Ten months later, he tried again, producing the set himself with help from the little-known Ben Wisch, who had helped him with his demos. Finally released in 1991 when Cohn was 31 years old, his self-titled debut album was a huge hit, thanks to the massive success of "Walking In Memphis." Cohn won the 1991 Grammy for Best New Artist award, beating out both Boyz II Men and Seal and Seal. Cohn never matched the chart success of this song, but like his musical heroes Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell and Jackson Browne , he remained a critical and artistic success as a songwriter and performer.

He has issued two other studio albums to date, The Rainy Season (1993) and Burning the Daze (1998), both on Atlantic Records. A self-released live compilation, Live 04-05 (2005), is being sold at concerts on his current tour.

He is the most famous graduate of Beachwood High School in Beachwood, Ohio, a Cleveland suburb. He attended Oberlin College.

The Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1992 was awarded to Cohn.

Cohn is married to ABC News journalist Elizabeth Vargas whom he met at the 1999 US Open after being introduced by Andre Agassi. Cohn and Vargas have two sons: Zachary Raphael (born on January 31, 2003) and Samuel Wyatt (born on August 16, 2006). Cohn has two other children—Max and Emily—from a previous marriage.

On August 7, 2005, Cohn was shot in the head during an attempted carjacking, following a concert with Suzanne Vega in Denver, Colorado. He was hospitalized and released the next day. The remaining concerts on the tour were cancelled.

Cohn released "The Very Best of Marc Cohn" in June 2006, and his 4th studio album, "Join The Parade", was released on October 9, 2007.
