Bad As I Am
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here I go again
My heart's on the line
I'm willing to pretend
One more time
I got some life to spend
On even rhymes
But when I reach the end
Will you, will you, will you be mine
[Chorus:]
This time I know your not the answer to my prayer
And I have grown with each disappointment through the years
And as bad as I am, and as bad as I am
I'm still here.
On the road again
I've paid a fine
Where now is the friend
I leave, I leave, I leave behind
I'm goin' round the bend
One more climb
But when I reach the end
Will you, will you, will you be mine
This time I know your not the answer to my prayer
And I have grown with each disappointment through the years
And as bad as I am, and as bad as I am, and as bad as I am
I'm still here.
This time I know your not the answer to my prayer
And I have grown with each disappointment through the years
And as bad as I am, and as bad as I am, and as bad as I am
I'm still here.
I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here
