I was only seventeen when my luck ran out I didn't know where to turn, I was so in doubt I had to find someone to hold, and I met my man I loved him but I hated him too, his habit's so out of hand
I said, hey, can't you see what you're doing to me? I gave you my heart, but you can set me free Because I'm not in the mood to be apologized to There's more to this life than your drugs and your booze
He said, please don't cry Wipe those tears from your eyes I will survive I will see you through
He promised me he'd change And then one day, a baby came
For the past nine months or so, I ain't feeling so sweet They told me I had to behave myself, so I'd be healthy I thought I did everything right, now everything's gone wrong Our baby's got a broken heart, he ain't feeling so strong
My God, what did I do to deserve this from you I don't think I've ever been so confused I still feel the pain, even after the bruise What should I do, tell me what should I do
He said, mama, don't cry Wipe those tears from your eyes I will survive I will see my life through
Please understand It was not in your hands You do the best that you can And I know your love is true
I'm not surprised that I feel so old Sometimes existence can be so cold I'll find the strength just to carry on Am I destined to pay for my every mistake? Will somebody tell me for how long?
