Well, I'm a man of many wishes Hope my premonition misses But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide ‘Cause they always start to cry ‘Cause this time could mean goodbye Lately, I have had the strangest feeling With no vivid reason here to find Yet

I won't pick up the phone And you can tell me that you're sorry But I don't believe you baby You don't have to call anymore This is the last straw Don't wanna hurt anymore Like I did before You're not sorry, no no All this time I was wasting

I'm not giving up I won't let go 'Cause I am here till I'm done This time I've had enough I'm on my own But I am back where I belong Got my back against the wall Tried to scream there's no sound at all I'm stuck with nowhere to turn but I'm trying

But I can't find the words Every time we say goodbye Baby, it hurts When the sun goes down And the band won't play I'll always remember us this way So when I'm all choked up That Arizona sky burning in your eyes You look at me and, babe, I wanna catch on

Don't turn your back on me I won't be ignored Don't turn your back on me I won't be ignored I can't feel the way I did before Time won't heal this damage anymore So I, let go watching you turn your back like you always do But I'll be here 'cause you're

You only know how to fly And I've made the same mistakes But I won't this time No I won't this time You're a pretty butterfly You keep on passing by You never land inside my hands Your home is in the sky And there's a lesson waiting to be learned

But I don't You always come back when I'm at my weakest When I'm fool enough to let you in Sayin' how this time around is different Asking if I want to try again But I won't

With four hungry children and a crop in the field I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times But this time your hurting won't heal "You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille" You picked a fine time

Oh I'm alive And this time I won't forget I'm taking my first breath And the tears begin to swell Tears I dare not fight 'Cause now I'm alive Now I'm alive Oh, I will try But I tell you it ain't easy using only words

When this war is over It will be a better day But it won't bring back Those poor boys in their graves Ain't no sense in no action Killin' people all the time When it happens on the street We call that a crime Man, he can get along
