bill sutton - shake the dust off lyrics

some things just weren’t meant to be
some things just don’t work through
you tell yourself so many times, but you don’t believe it’s true
you failed, you didn’t try enough
and when the going got too tough, you quit

you think—another stepping stone, on that downhill road i’m bound
and wouldn’t life be wonderful if i were not around?
i’ve never been a man who loved the way love ought to be
there’s nothing wrong with her, there must be something wrong with me

someone used to live with you
you just can’t quite recall
there was no major battle, just an ending to it all
and lives you meant to live as one
were finished neatly, closed and done, you’re gone

sometimes you just think about
the things you know you did
other times you realize you were really just a kid
but others, when their problems grew
showed their love and made it through—you split
you think—another stepping stone, on that downhill road i’m bound
and wouldn’t life be wonderful if i were not around?
i’ve never been a man who loved the way love ought to be
there’s nothing wrong with her, there must be something wrong with me

you fight the doubts in the light of dawn
you try to work out what went wrong
the tangle lies, it takes so long to see
maybe both of you were blind
each left the other one behind
you grew in different ways to find the key

somewhere there’s another
you’re afraid to take her hand
afraid that all the things you’ve learned won’t help you understand
but then you look into her eyes
and know you’ll grow as one—this time, you stay

you think—i’ve got a stepping stone, on that upward road i’m bound
and isn’t living wonderful the way it goes around?
i never knew at all before just what love ought to be
there’s nothing wrong with us, and that is quite alright with me!
