Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord, I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through
Sometimes it seems the going is just too rough
And things go wrong no matter what I do
Now and then it feels like life is just too much
But you've got the love I need to see me through
[?]
Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord, I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through
...
Time after time I say: "Oh Lord, what's the use"
Time after time I say: "This just won't do"
But sooner or later in life the things you love you lose
Just like before I call on you...
You got the love...
Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord, I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through
...
