Painful Times

LISTEN ON

(W. Preston) West King Publishing, ASCAP

We had a wonderful love affair
It wasn’t what we needed
But it sure paid us well
But things turned bad
And we couldn’t seem to cope
Not stressing what you did to me
Girl I had to let that go

Hook:

Painful times
Were blessings in disguise
Wonderful things
Are now coming my way
And since you’ve been gone
My life sure has changed
So thanks for the rain
That erased all my pain

No need to call me
You see I’m ok
You thought you would destroy me
But I’ll always find my way
You see I know about love’s ups and downs
So it’s funny that you believed
That your spell would keep me bound

(Hook)

I thought it was over
Thought I was done
Was looking for something
That was already gone
So I kept it moving
Steady with pace
Searching for something
So the pain would erase
Why did you do it to me?
Knocked me down
Girl you sure scraped my knees
And now I believe

(Hook)

Sometimes I sit and cry
And I wonder why
And what life would be like
With you by my side
But I’m alright, I’m ok
I’m gonna make it in this world either way
I’m alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
I’m alright, alright, alright, alright, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
I’m gonna be alright
I’m gonna be alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Yeah, yeah
