When Everything Was Alright
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.
There goes my mind
there goes my mind
And it's the same mistake
I've made so many times
that my own mother think I'm blind
You can't be true
you can't be true
And I'm spending all my money
making sure that things are going right for you
Starting it over
to a time when everything was alright
when everything was alright
To the time
when everything was alright
To the time
when everything was alright
You got no love
you got no love
And don't come crying home girl
when you realize you ain't got no love
I'm coming down
I'm coming down
And I'm paranoid of everything
yeah girl you got me living underground
(Yeah you know what I'm talking about)
Starting it over
back then when everything was alright
when everything was alright
to the time
when everything was alright
to the time
when everything was alright
When jaundice went away
in 1997
They said your liver's fine now
but you're never goin to heaven
'cause of what you've done
'cause of what you've done
I said listen son
It's 'cause of what you've done
Starting it over
back then when everything was alright
Yeah everything was alright
everything was alright
To the time
when everything was alright
to the time
when everything was alright
to the time
when everything was alright
