For Goodness Sake

For goodness sake, this world can prove demanding
And moves in ways beyond my understanding
Good friends with theories that will just confuse ya
Tho' they mean well, make no mistake
For goodness sake, so many people crying something's missing
We try to help them but they just won't listen
Sometimes the truth can be a rocky road to take
We do our best for goodness sake
Life is a living lesson
Love is how it's taught
Mastering the art of give and take
Doing and undoing someone else's rights and wrongs
Sometimes sleeping in a bed we didn't make
For goodness sake if we can change, let's do it now or never
This kind of madness can't go on forever
Sometimes the truth can be a rocky road to take
We do our best for goodness sake
Life is a living lesson
Love is how it's taught
Mastering the art of give and take
Doing and undoing someone else's rights and wrongs
Sometimes sleeping in a bed we didn't make
For goodness sake if we can change let's do it now or never
This kind of madness can't go on forever
Sometimes the truth can be a rocky road to take
We do our best for goodness sake
We do our best for goodness sake
We do cur best for goodness sake
