We've been through many things
Oh woman don't you cry
But I felt I should give up
Oh father don't you cry

I am this way please
Don't you try to change my mind
It's been too long
This is enough to sacrifice

This must've been a heartfelt sight
Please don't cry your heart out tonight

But when it's time
I'll get things right
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know

You said nothing else matters
But I know you lied
God only knows the things
That you must've passed by

This must've been a heartfelt sight
Please don't cry your heart out tonight

But when it's time
I'll get things right
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know

Take good care of me
Like you always did
You set a future that wasn't meant to be
You gotta wait to see

But when it's time
I'll get things right
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
