written by Paul Barrére and Bill Payne © Naked Snake Music (ASCAP) I've been down but not like this before Can't be 'round this kind of show no more All, all that you dream Comes through shining silver lining clouds Clouds change the scene Rain starts washing all those cautions into your life Makes you realize just what is true What else can you do Just follow the rules Keep your eyes on the road that's ahead of you I've been down but not like this before Can't be 'round this kind of show no more All of the good times were ours In the land of milk and honey Time, time adds its scars Rainy days they turn to sunny ones Living the life, living the life, loving everyone I've been down but not like this before Can't be 'round this kind of show no more I've been down but not like this before Can't be 'round this kind of show no more
