| Misery found a way into me |
| Put me under her spell |
| Ringed me out like a bell |
| Said, 'Company |
| Pay your attention to me |
| Those wounds, they will heal |
| Right now you don’t have to feel' |
| She said, 'Gentle, gentle, dear |
| Baby, don’t you fear |
| You know life is but a dream |
| So flow gently down that stream' |
| Said my misery |
| Misery took the life outta me |
| Had me under her thumb |
| Left me there feeling numb |
| Said, 'Company, pay your attention to me' |
| She said, 'Those wounds, they will heal |
| Right now you don’t have to feel' |
| She said, 'Gentle, gentle, dear |
| Baby, don’t you fear |
| You know life is but a dream |
| So flow gently down that stream' |
| Said my misery |
| Put me under her spell |
| Ringed me out like a bell |
| Put me under her spell |
| Ringed me out like a bell |
| She said, 'Gentle, gentle, dear |
| Baby, don’t you fear |
| You know life is but a dream |
| So flow gently down that stream' |
