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.
