Madeleine Peyroux - Instead lyrics

rate me

Instead of feel in' bad, be glad you've got somewhere to go

Instead of feel in' sad, be happy you're not all alone

Instead of feelin' low, get high on everything that you love

Instead of wastin' time, feel good 'bout what you're dreamin' of.

Instead of tryin' to win something you never understood

Just play the game you know eventually you'll love her good

It's silly io pretend that you have something you don't own

Just let her be your woman and you'll be her man ..

Instead of feelin' broke, buck up and get yourself in the black

Instead of losin' hope, touch up the things that feel out of whack

Instead of bein' old, be young because you know you are

Instead of feelin' cold, let sunshine into your heart.

Instead of acting crazy chasin' things that make you mad

Keep your heart ahead it'll lead you back to what you have

With every step you're closer to the place you need to be

It's up to you to let her love you sweetly ...

Instead of feelin' bad be glad you've got someone to love

Instead of feelin' sad, be happy there's a god above

Instead of feelin' low, remember you're never on your own

Instead of feel in sad, be happy that she's there at home

She's waitin' for you by the phone

So be glad that she is all your own!

Get happy ... she's waitin' for you by the telephone.

So get back home!<br />
