For So Long
I took a ride in an automobile
Pushed my hands out against the wheel
Asked a girl if she needed a ride
She said, "Sure, babe, but I wanna drive"
Hey now, wait awhile
We're going down with a smile
Cold river -- she took me down
Cold river -- she took my pride
Had to stop on account of the storm
Seemed like years since I'd been warm
We drove all night till the tires blew
Got in the back and did what you do
Hey now, wait awhile
We're going down with a smile
Cold river -- she took me down
Cold river -- she to
I Thought We Had It All
I thought it was love it was just bad luck
and I came to the conclusion my love life really sucked
I'm not sure of my problem I think it must be me
maybe I'm too afraid to face reality
I thought it was love it was just my imagination
I look back at yesterday Oh what was I thinking
today I learned a lesson that always will be true
That life isn't supposed to be that good
My fingers no longer count the mistakes I have made
I really don't know why it seemed to end my day
I've never felt a loss until I said goodbye
I thought that I was strong but I just broke down and cried
And now a beautiful girl enters my world
Her sweet and caring smile lifts me up above
I get some affection no longer am I broken hearted
It seems the circle of life was just restarted
The most brutal of men cries at the past
I wished the good times would last
