You will never be alright And I will never be okay And I can't be your Jesus Christ 'Cause I am but a mortal man, just looking for the promised land And it kills me slowly You never know what you got till it's gone forever My one and only It's time to say goodbye When life gets hard, I send a prayer For this cross I have to bear and this smile I'm forced to wear And I'm no good, no good, can't you tell? And if you could cast a spell, would it be to watch me fail? Well, I prevail ♪ I prevail You will never see the light Heaven will not know your name And my only real advice Is the only thing that you ignore is exactly what you're looking for So listen closely You never know what you got till it's gone forever My one and only It's time to say goodbye When life gets hard, I send a prayer For this cross I have to bear and this smile I'm forced to wear And I'm no good, no good, can't you tell? And if you could cast a spell, would it be to watch me fail? ♪ Oh, when life gets hard, I send a prayer For this cross I have to bear and this smile I'm forced to wear And I'm no good, no good, can't you tell? Oh, if I could cast a spell, I would send you straight to hell ♪ And if you could cast a spell, would it be to watch me fail?
