[Verse 1]
Oh, Mother, I can feel
The soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed
And I say
[Chorus]
"It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
It's over, over, over, over
It's over"
[Verse 2]
Oh, Mother, I can feel
The soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed
And I say
"Sad veiled bride, please be happy
Handsome groom, give her room
Loud, loutish lovеr, treat her kindly
Although she needs you morе than she loves you"
[Chorus]
And I know it's over, still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
It's over, over, over
It's over
[Post-Chorus]
It's so easy to laugh, easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
It's easy to laugh, easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
It's easy to laugh, easy to hate
It's over, over, over, over
[Bridge]
Easy to laugh, easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
It's easy to laugh, easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
It's over, over, over, over
Over, over
