Patty Larkin - Best of Intentions lyrics

The man in the hallway is cleaning up grief While travelers chase after time like a thief With oversized bags they wait for relief in the dawn The Best of Intentions all get up and leave before long The highway is frozen with cold working stiffs Who sit in their well heated cars tightly lipped Wait for the light to change red to green then move on The Best of Intentions all get up and leave before long Sooner or later The good and the bad All end up being just times that we had Don't take it too hard Thinking you figured it wrong The sun went away and it ain't coming back It would be a shame if you forgot how to laugh Would be a shame turning your back on a song The Best of Intentions all get up and leave before long I told you I loved you And tried not to cry Told you the angels all know how to fly Cross my heart This ain't goodbye, just so long Red sky at night is a sailor's delight So I put on my skates and I'm crossing the ice Holding my breath, I think once or twice about God The Best of Intentions all get up and leave before long The man in the hallway is cleaning up grief The faithful will always fall back on belief I wish there was something I could believe to belong The Best of Intentions all get up and leave before long The Best of Intentions all get up and leave before long
