Used to lead quiet existence Always had my peace of mind Kept Old Man Trouble at a distance My days were silver lined! Right on top of the world I sat But look at me now, I don't know where I'm at! I was doing alright Nothing but rainbows in my sky I was doing alright Till you came by! Had no cause to complain Life was as sweet as apple pie Never noticed the rain Till you came by! But now, whenever you're away Can't sleep nights and I suffer all the day; I just sit and wonder If love isn't one big blunder! But when you're holding me tight Tingling all through, I feel somehow
I was doing alright But I'm doing better than ever now! Oh, I was doin' alright Nothin' but rainbows in my sky I was doin' alright Till you came by! I had no cause to complain Life was as sweet as apple pie Never noticed the rain Till you came by! But now, whenever you're away Can't sleep nights and I suffer all the day; I just sit and wonder If love isn't one big blunder! Johnny, when you're holdin' me tight Oh, tingling all through, I feel somehow I was doin' alright But I'm doing better than ever now!
