Don't Let the Door Hit You
Lyrics
Is what I do right or is it wrong if it helps you
But it hurts you deeply too
I didn't do what you thought that I should've
But I did what I felt I had to do
I hope that you'll be your best but I only
Give you the worst of what I know you need
As surely as a fish knows sky
Do I know if it's good I let you bleed
I can't make you see that bad luck'll get glued to you
Like darkness to the night
I tell ya life ain't supposed to be easy
But yours will be harder by a damn sight
Oh, my darling
I've got a sense that you will stumble
Into your grave
Oh, my child
I can't but just barely mumble
Let alone be brave
You're waiting for happiness to stroll your way so you just
Keep on playing a fool
Sooner or later when your time's run out you'll realize
Nobody gave you your due
Tired and lonesome now your dreams are broken cause you didn't
You didn't know the rules
And before too long you'll just be old, sad
And dripping with drool
Oh, my darling
I've got a sense that you will stumble
Into your grave
Oh, my child
I can't but just barely mumble
Let alone be brave
There's no sense in throwing away what makes you glad
Don't sacrifice your smile
Love is what we both need
And I've tried to give it all the while
I'm afraid that down the road once all
I can do is done
I'll still be lookin' around and missing
You, my one and only one
Is what I do right or is it wrong if it helps you
But it hurts you deeply too
I didn't do what you thought that I should've
But I did what I felt I had to do
I hope that you'll be your best but I only
Give you the worst of what I know you need
As surely as a fish knows sky
Do I know if it's good I let you bleed
I can't make you see that bad luck'll get glued to you
Like darkness to the night
I tell ya life ain't supposed to be easy
But yours will be harder by a damn sight
Oh, my darling
I've got a sense that you will stumble
Into your grave
Oh, my child
I can't but just barely mumble
Let alone be brave
You're waiting for happiness to stroll your way so you just
Keep on playing a fool
Sooner or later when your time's run out you'll realize
Nobody gave you your due
Tired and lonesome now your dreams are broken cause you didn't
You didn't know the rules
And before too long you'll just be old, sad
And dripping with drool
Oh, my darling
I've got a sense that you will stumble
Into your grave
Oh, my child
I can't but just barely mumble
Let alone be brave
There's no sense in throwing away what makes you glad
Don't sacrifice your smile
Love is what we both need
And I've tried to give it all the while
I'm afraid that down the road once all
I can do is done
I'll still be lookin' around and missing
You, my one and only one
