Sometimes good intentions Don't come across so well...
Get me analyzing everything that Ain't worth thinking 'bout Just cause I ain't lived through, The same hand that was dealt to you Doesn't make me any less Or make any more of you.
I wouldn't trade my best day. So you could validate All your fears.
And if I've only got one shot Won't waste it on a shadow box I'll stand right here
[Chorus:] It's all talk, talk, talk Talkin' in the wind It only slows you down If you start listenin' And it's a whole lot harder to shine, Than undermine Yeah, undermine
First mile is always harder When you're leaving what you know Won't blame you if you stay here Waving to me as I go Always wished the best for you Thought that you would see me through my wildest dreams Yeah, the ones you thought I'd never make
Still, you would trade your best day Just to have your way All these years And if you only had one shot Maybe all this talk Would disappear
[Chorus]
It's a whole lot harder to shine Yeah, it's a whole lot harder to shine, Than undermine Yeah, undermine
Sometimes good intentions Don't come across so well
