I'll need time to get you off my mind |
|
I may sometimes bother you, try to be in touch with you |
|
Even ask too much of you, from time to time |
|
Now and then, Lord, you know I'll need a friend |
|
And 'till I get used to losing you, let me keep on using you, |
|
'Til I can make it on my own. |
|
I'll get by, but no matter how I try |
|
There'll be times that you'll know I'll call |
|
Chances are my tears will fall |
|
And I'll have no pride at all, from time to time |
|
But they say, oh, there'll be a brighter day |
|
But 'til then I lean on you, that's all I mean to do, |
|
'Til I can make it on my own. |
|
Surely someday I'll look up and see the morning sun |
|
Without another lonely night behind me |
|
Then I'll know I'm over you and all my cryin's done |
|
No more hurtin' memories can find me. |
|
But 'til then, Lord, you know I'm gonna need a friend |
|
'Til I get used to losing you, let me keep on using you |
|
'Til I can make it on my own... |
