Sidelines

Nothing to lose but patience A steep hill to climb We was ahead a-wasted She got me wondering why So now we cast our tides It's easy on the stage On the sidelines, I don't know The feelings all the same Something strange I'll never show Bad tempers got no time No more tears to cry But it's not the time, more life We came down like the rain did With that friendly fire Even friends replaced me Ain't no wondering why I look to your western glow But southern comfort came with it Prison tossed your clothes And every penny that came with it So we cast our tides It's easy on the stage On the sidelines, I don't know The feelings all the same Something strange I'll never show Bad tempers got no time No more tears to cry But it's not the time for life You can take my pride I'll leave you there Bad tempers put aside Take your money, I'm gon' ride Broken strings bring smiles I'm taking out a loan 'Cause history never dies But my future's left to write My future's left to write My future's left to write My future's left to write
