Artist/Band: Jean Shepard
Lyrics for Song: Corner of Despair
Lyrics for Album: I'll Take the Dog (w/Ray Pillow) [1966]



(Ray Griff)



We were both two lonely people

Life had passed us by somewhere

Till that night they introduced us

On the corner of despair.



We had both in one time loser

And our loss was hard to bear

Till we met there in the shadow

On the corner of despair.



We were both in need of someone

Who could offer love and care

So we walked away together

From the corner of despair.



From the corner of despair...
