I?VE BEEN THERE BEFORE

one of those days
that just wouldn?t end
an? you never found
that long lost friend
you looked for comfort
they show?ed you the door

I?ve been there before
I?ve been there before

then the rain came
a drizzlin? down
around your head
like a watery crown
it?s hard to swallow
with a throat that sore

I?ve been there before
I?ve been there before

the land is strange
there?s no turnin? back
the sky is red and the water is black
the trees are bare and the earth seems to snore
has anyone ever possibly been here before?

you push and pull
but the mule won?t move
what is old fortune
trying to prove
where?s the assistance?
who?s manning the store?

I?ve been there before
I?ve been there before

the wind curls
the curtains swirl
you start to wonder
if you belong in this world
a terrible fright
strikes you to the core

I?ve been there before
