Getting crazy, don't faze me, ask me why and I ask you why not
So the symptom of human nature and things are falling apart they are turning to
Disappointers all there seems lessons for the heart baby
And no I wouldn't trade you for the world
I wanna hit the end before we start girl listen to me
Stop roll me round, settle down you can't erase this,
You got me so I got you, don't be afraid to lose, appreciate it
It's so joyful feeling the pain again I get myself in trouble whenever I try to resist
I learned to embrace the struggle whether I lose or win
I'm living indeed so joyful to feel the pain and love again
Now here's a message for the young and restless it might take you some time to really get it
Don't take your baby for granted sometimes you gotta give her a lie to get a little bit so
Stop roll me round, settle down you can't replace what you can never...
... hear the sound in your heart, you better try to win cause you got a lot to lose
So it's really up to you, to appreciate it
It's so joyful feeling the pain again I get myself in trouble whenever I try to resist
I learned to embrace the struggle whether I lose or win
I'm living indeed so joyful here I go again, I'm... away, but I gotta know the route
So I'm opening out to you, I can feel you now, and I need you to show me how
I feel just like a flower in the rain who waits for the sun to shine again, but I appreciate you
It's so joyful feeling the pain again I get myself in trouble whenever I try to resist
I learned to embrace the struggle whether I lose or win
I'm living indeed so joyful to feel the pain and love again
It's so joyful feeling the pain again I get myself in trouble whenever I try to resist
I learned to embrace the struggle whether I lose or win
I'm living indeed so joyful to feel the pain and love again
Being in love again, oh yeah, I'm living my life again
This time I'm gonna win, this time I'm gonna win
I'm already gonna win,.. baby
Guess I better leave, tears in my eyes, there's no surprise baby,
Can't shake you baby, guess I better leave, a, baby?
Just better leave, this was supposed to be, don't try to change it
Baby just let it be,.. yeah baby
Guess I better leave, tears in my eyes, there's no surprise baby,
Can't shake you baby, guess I better leave, a, baby?
Just better leave, this was supposed to be, don't try to change it
