Lyrics

Well, I'm standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
If I hurt you, I did not mean to
I beg your pardon, I did not want to
When I leave you, don't you think about me?
Well, I won't be back, babe, I'll be long gone
When the time comes and I'm not ready
Seems it's over before I'm started
Well, the time comes and I don't feel it
I don't know nothing but my own
So I'm standing with my head bowed down now
And that ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
Our kingdoms into the sky go
And the highway like a river does flow
On my way, sometimes it hurts so
On your way, just don't go home
So I'm standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
Standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
Well, I'm standing with my head bowed down now
That ain't right, that ain't wrong
It's just a feeling, but I can't shake it
Well, I keep on trying, but it's been so long
