There's a valley of sorrow in my soul Where every night I hear the thunder roll Like the sound of a distant gun Over all the damage I have done And the shadows filling up this land Are the ones I built with my own hand There is no comfort from the cold Of this valley of sorrow in my soul There's a river of darkness in my blood And through every vein I feel the flood I can find no bridge for me to cross No way to bring back what is lost Into the night it soon will sweep Down where all my grievances I keep But it won't wash away the years Or one single hard and bitter tear And the rock of ages I have known Is a weariness down in the bone I used to ride it like a rolling stone Now I just carry it alone There's a highway risin' from my dreams Deep in the heart I know it gleams For I have seen it stretching wide Clear on across to the other side Beyond the river and the flood And the valley where for so long I've stood With the rock of ages in my bones Someday I know it'll lead me home Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh-oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh
To write and then sing this song, so personal and revealing shows a lot of self reflection , forgiveness and realization of what life can do to your spirit, soul and understanding. I can't listen without crying and in wonder of Emmylou's talents.
Diese Frau kann alles. Ihre Ausstrahlung ist einmalig und sie hat eine Engelsstimme. Habe sie 1979 zum erstenmal gesehen und gehört. Ich danke dem lieben Gott dafür.❤
someone gave me my first guitar.. a long time ago... I think it was the finest gift I ever received... almost 60 years later I play my guitar... whenever goodtime Charlie gets the blues.. or even when the sun is shining on my back door 🌄 it was a gift straight from the heart ❤️

I’ve heard this song, 100 times, and I cry every time I hear it. It’s like she wrote it especially for me. God bless you.
There's a valley of sorrow in my soul
Where every night I hear the thunder roll
Like the sound of a distant gun
Over all the damage I have done
And the shadows filling up this land
Are the ones I built with my own hand
There is no comfort from the cold
Of this valley of sorrow in my soul
There's a river of darkness in my blood
And through every vein I feel the flood
I can find no bridge for me to cross
No way to bring back what is lost
Into the night it soon will sweep
Down where all my grievances I keep
But it won't wash away the years
Or one single hard and bitter tear
And the rock of ages I have known
Is a weariness down in the bone
I used to ride it like a rolling stone
Now I just carry it alone
There's a highway risin' from my dreams
Deep in the heart I know it gleams
For I have seen it stretching wide
Clear on across to the other side
Beyond the river and the flood
And the valley where for so long I've stood
With the rock of ages in my bones
Someday I know it'll lead me home
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
What a beautiful song from Emmylou Harris. It moves me deeply.
What a beautiful song sung by a beautiful voice.
One of her very best compositions, at least to my knowledge. Beautiful music and lyrics ❤
To write and then sing this song, so personal and revealing shows a lot of self reflection , forgiveness and realization of what life can do to your spirit, soul and understanding. I can't listen without crying and in wonder of Emmylou's talents.
Leonard Cohen wrote this song.
Emmylou Harris really brings it home on this masterpiece. It makes me weep every time. Her voice washes over me.
Stunning performance.
So sad and still so beautiful. This song brings tears to my eyes.❤
The same for me, dear friend.
Thank you Emmylou...for these words of wisdom.
Alway's loved this song. And sung with the voice of a Angel! ❤️
What an absolutely great song, I can feel this one personally.

Hauntingly beautiful. I wonder to what degree it is autobiographical.
How did Emmylou write and sing my life.?
Believe me, you’re not the only one.
Something like that..
Who is the accompanying guitarist?
Jon Randall Stewart
