The Pogues – Tuesday Morning Lyrics 13 years ago
This guy loves his woman so much that, even though he knows she will be leaving him soon, he is willing to endure that pain in order to stay in the moment with her now. He knows it will be painful as hell when she leaves, but he is willing to endure that pain, just to experience the joyful feelings of being in love that they have now.
Hence "Turn your face from me/I will cover myself with sorrow/Bring hell down upon me/I will surrender my heart to sorrow".
He anticipates the pain and sadness that is coming. But he also knows that she loves him, and he loves her. And he doesn't feel like those feelings will fade.
