Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, you asked me if I'll forget my baby
I guess I will someday
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way
You asked me if I'll get along
I guess I will some way
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way
[Verse 2]
God gave me that girl to lean on
Then he put me on my own
Heaven help me be a man
And have the strength to stand alone
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way
[Verse 3]
You asked me if I'll miss her kisses
I guess I will every day
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way
You asked me if I'll find another
I don't know, I can't say
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way
[Verse 4]
God gave me that girl to lean on
Then he put me on my own
Heaven help me be a man
And have the strength to stand alone
I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way
