The Handsome Family - Trial Of Time

On a trail of time there's many sorrows
And a worried mind can't be at rest
For everything I've ever wanted
I do not find but I've done my best

I can see the stars in the wild blue yonder
And I count each one up in the sky
I've got them named and when I come to yours dear
I remember things and I start to cry

Down the trail of time the way is crooked
I've left behind many pleasures too
I've also left my share of sorrows
And that is why I feel so blue

I remember two blue eyes that loved me
In a thousand years I couldn't forget
I left alone to face the future
Sometimes I wish we'd never met
