| So let me tell a story, friend
|
| Of diamond hands and one night stands
|
| I guess the good life paid you once or twice
|
| Just when I thought I had it all
|
| Caught a sucker punch and lost it all
|
| Just never thought it would have come from you
|
| So here I stand alone again
|
| With one eye open — I’m a broken man
|
| Life flashed before my eyes, but I’m alive
|
| I found out the hard way
|
| And your day’s coming soon
|
| I found out the hard way
|
| I pray you’ll make it through
|
| So what am I supposed to do
|
| When all I’ve got, is God and you?
|
| I guess I’ll trust the one I can’t see
|
| As I sit here on this park bench
|
| Knowing what you are thinking
|
| I wonder how you close your eyes to sleep
|
| So here I stand alone again
|
| Talking to my faceless friend
|
| At least when we’ve got words, theyre eye to eye
|
| I’m just a simple man -(Make it through) — (x3)
|
| -(I'm just a simple man) — Make it through (x3)
|
| …The hard way, (x2) |
