Things haven't been alright in years,

And although you see me smile,

My heart is drenched in tears,

Just for a moment I saw you,

I saw you and it made me smile,

I fell to my knees, I saw you,

You faded in and then you faded out,

My head hung to hide these crying eyes.



I don't think things'll ever be too great,

But I'll try my best to make them good,

Or atleast OK,

Just for a moment,

I thought things were gonna go just my way,

I fell to my knees,

To thank the lord, but too little too late,

I was wrong one more time.



I've had my fill of heartaches,

Made my share of mistakes,

And I know,

Nothing's ever gonna change a thing that we do,

Well I could,

Own the world and lose it all,

And it could be all your fault,

But I know,

Nothing's ever gonna taint my love for you.



Things haven't been alright in years,

And although you see a man who's sure,

I'm sure of nothing,

Just for a moment,

I lost you and it broke me down,

But you're here now,

And that's all that I really care about,

I was wrong, we're alright.
