As Bad as This
Did you ever in your life before
Feel as bad as this?
Did you ever in good time think
My life had gone amiss?
Now I feel I've been unfair
'cause I catch you hanging there
Did you ever in your life before
Feel as bad as this?
God knows I tried a half a year
But it didn't do no good
My damnedest try to make it work
I knew it never would
Now there's nothin' wrong with you
And there's nothing you could ever do
God knows I tried a half a year
But it didn't do no good
The times were good
But over now
A pleasant memory
I'm sorry, there's another face
One that's close to me
You know 'bout what I learned
And there's no stone left unturned
The times were good
But over now
A pleasant memory. (sigh)
