I’m Gonna Make It All The Way

I cried the day you left me and
I still don't know what kept me
From jumping off the highest bridge I know
My poor heart was breaking
I felt lower than a snake-in
That is just about the lowest you can go
I finally stopped my drinking
Fell down and started thinking
That it's no pay to relive yesterday
I tried to hide my sorrow
Started living for tomorrow
I think I'm gonna make it all the way

You hurt me and abused me
Took advantage of and used me
I swear it almost made a wreck of me
When I needed your devotion
You were never in the notion
You were cold as any iceberg in the sea
Love to you had lost it's splendor
My pride went out the window
When you left me, I kept begging you to stay
But now my heart is healing
And I got a real good feeling
I think I'm gonna make it all the way

My troubles came in bunches
I kept rolling with the punches
You'd shoot me down and I'd get back again
I tried to be your lover
In no time I did discover
Your loving cup was not for me to win
Your kisses weren't the same but I
Kept kinda fan the flame
Till I just couldn't take another day
You can't blame me for trying
Now I stopped my crying
I think I'm gonna make it all the way
I tried my best to take it
But my smiling face didn't make it
'Cause in my heart, I knew there was no hope
Each place reminded me of the
Memories of your love
I've come right to the end of my rope
That's when I met my new friend
She's just as much a true friend
Treats me like a lover here to stay
And it's working out so well now
You can go to hell now
This time I'm gonna make it all the way
Yes, this time I'll make it all the way
Yes i think I'm gonna make it all the way
Baby, get out of my way
