Lyrics for Pleasure And Pain

I, I'm leaving here on the morning train And I will never see this world again Oh, I've felt pleasure And I have felt pain And I know now That I can never be the same How I wonder why the world can be so cold And if only good die young Then left with me cruel here to grow old Oh, and I've felt pleasure And I've felt pain And I know now I can never be the same And if someday I find my peace of mind I will share my wealth with all of human kind Well, I've felt pleasure And I have felt pain And I know now That I can never be the same So if the sun does shine or rain does fall I give thanks I've had my sight to see through it all Oh, I've felt pleasure And I have felt pain And I know now That I can never be the same
