Maybe your mama didn't treat you right Maybe her intentions weren't even very good Maybe my daddy he laid awake at night Imaginin' himself in some other neighborhood Left to our own devices Like maybe they were too Out on the open road And wonderin' what to do You ask how we got here baby don't ask how 'Cause that was sometime other than now Takes what it takes, that's what they told us girl Done a lot of dumb things, probably do some more On two different paths, runnin' 'round in different worlds We finally found each other, who we were lookin' for I see my own reflection When I give my love to you And it's shot back like an arrow So straight and true (Chorus) An' I'm not leavin' babe Whatever's comin' right here and now Maybe tomorrow we can't take I'm not grievin' babe anymore The past is gone An' we can't fake it, baby let's make it With this love of ours somehow A little bit of fear, you know it goes a long way It's followed us around since we were little kids With just a little faith, well maybe baby someday We will have the strength, the strength to forgive Don't come all of a sudden But when it's here at last You blink your eyes and miss it It happen so fast (Chorus) Yeah, that was sometime other than now
