lyrics
I wake up, I look around, you’re sleeping on the ground
You’re sleeping on the ground beside my bed
I thought that you were gone, long gone
Long gone, long enough to clear your head
But you look warm, you look content
Just an angry angel heaven kindly sent
To my floor, to my bed, to my heart, to my head
To my heart
Now you feel shortchanged
Tell me who doesn’t feel shortchanged?
Who’s getting all they give,
And giving it just the same?
Mama, mama I know
This is just you and you told me so
You told me this is me and it’s okay, to feel that way
‘Cause it’s a relative thing,
Suffering
Good story, happy end, pleasant memory, faithful friend
Faithful friend, holy wonder
Bad luck, bad blood, bad heart, hard love
Hard love, rolling thunder
But I have been warned, I crossed a line
Your eyes are on the door, you’re ready to say goodbye
To my floor, to my bed, to my heart, to my head
To my heart
Now you feel shortchanged
Tell me who doesn’t feel shortchanged?
Who’s getting all they give,
And giving it just the same?
Mama, mama I know
This is just you and you told me so
You told me this is me and it’s okay, to feel that way
‘Cause it’s a relative thing,
Suffering
