When she needed me I wasn't around
It'll all work out eventually
Better off with him than here with me
It'll all work out eventually
When it mattered most I let her down
Still I think of her when the sun goes down
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out
And the water's rising in the levee
That's the way it goes, it'll all work out
Maybe better with him than here with me
Now the wind is high and the rain is heavy
I was pledged to her for worse or better
There were times apart, there were times together
