Lucinda Williams - When I Look at the World lyrics

rate me

I've been out of luck, I've been talked about,

I've been locked up, I've been shut out,

I've had some bad dreams, I've been filled with regret,

I've made a mess of things and been a total wreck,

I’ve been disrespected and and taken for a ride,

I've been rejected and had my patience tried.

But then I look at the world

In all it's glory

I look at the world

And it's a different story each time

I look at the world

I’ve been used and I've been blue,

I've been abused, I've been lied to,

I've been left behind, I've been misunderstood,

I've been out of my mind and not feeling good,

I’ve been lost and I've been turned away

I've paid a cost and it's been hell to pay.

But then I look at the world

In all it's glory

I look at the world

And it's a different story each time

I look at the world

I've been unforgiven, I've been let down

I've had the truth hidden, I've been kicked around,

I've been wasted, I've been on the brink

I've had my faith tested and my spirit sink

I've been unwelcome, I've been unloved,

I’ve been cheated on and made a fool of.

But then I look at the world

In all it's glory

I look at the world

And it's a different story each time

I look at the world

In all it's glory

I look at the world

And it's a different story each time

I look at the world

Each time I look at the world...

Each time I look at the world..
