Bends

Well she got tired of my jokes She told me things I didn't want to know But before that, we made love In the backseat of a car And now these are the memories That drive me made when I try to sleep So I sit out on this porch I smoke and drink till I feel a ghost Well so it goes, it all ends All in time or it's been said So it is, but i will mend I won't break but i sure bend And I still cry Lord I will survive Lord I am still alive The days they pass me by Lord I am still alive I read a book about Japan How when the bombs hit all was burned land Shadows were all that were left In a nightmarish remembrance And I still cry Lord I will survive Lord I am still alive The days they pass me by Lord I am still alive Well so it goes, it all ends All in time or it's been said So it is, but I will mend I won't break but i sure bend And I still cry Lord I will survive Lord I am still alive The days they pass me by Lord I am still alive Lord I will survive Lord I am still alive The days they pass me by Lord I am still alive
