As I lay resting
trouble follows me around
as she lay resting
peace screams; no sound
She wanted to go dancing,
drinking and to have fun.
She was now expecting
I wanted to save some.
She wanted her friend
to move right on in
a house built on love.
Let the end now begin.
As the moments passed
the further she walked away,
less did I now see her
as she danced nights away.
She now found old feelings
that drove her his way.
Yeah we’ll work things out
as I lay many nights alone
I didn’t believe her.
We will work things out.
She didn’t believe me
as I walked on out.
She went back to another.
Little sister took me in.
A paper wanting nothing
from a lawyer’s hand.
As I lay resting,
Ya, nights spent alone.
God has changed things;
Peace screams no sound.
