lyrics

I had to go, I had,
I had no other choice
Things went bad, left a bad taste
In my mouth

I’ve been praying all night, all night long
For something a little better
Seems god’s tuned to another station
He knows I’m stuck on that same old song and dance

Please believe me when I say I care
Even if the record doesn’t show it
Trust me when I say I’ll be there
Even if I’ve never been there

See I’m going through hard times
Paying for crimes I committed so long ago
What I need now is some understanding
Or maybe just somebody who understands me

Oh, oh, la la la la la la

Cover me in warm hemp blankets until I can no longer see the sun
Make it cold and dark outside
Could you do me, could you do me the favor
Of reaching through, reaching to me so I can reach you
Could you do me the favor of touching me so I know you love me

Oh, I’ve been trying so hard
Trying so hard
I’ve been trying hard
