r. dafremen

She was tough all day
but now she's weeping like a willow
You know she tried so hard
But no one ever seems
to want to meet her in the middle
And she knows the way they are
So now she'll bend again
'cause things won't work any other way
Frustrated dreams on a tear-stained pillow

Somehow this day to day became
weeks then months then years
(They all went laughing by)
But yesterday ain't gone
'cause she keeps it near
So somehow by and by
she became numb to the madness
or maybe learned to love the taste
grew jaded..either way

But give her time baby
(chorus)
Cause time'll take these days away
like teardrops
on the sidewalk when it's hot
Time gonna take away her pain
Time sho nuff
gonna make things better
(end chorus)

(solo)
(chorus)
Cause time'll take these days away
like teardrops
on the sidewalk when it's hot
Time gonna take away the pain
Time sho nuff
gonna make things better
(end chorus)

Plant closed down
now he's working with a shovel
Bows his head and does his part
Got bills to pay
On half the pay and twice the trouble
Enough to break your heart
But he'll bend his back again
'Cause he don't know any better way
Die broken
but with the mortgage paid

Give our people time to change 'cause baby
(chorus)
Time'll take these days away
like teardrops
on the sidewalk when it's hot
Time gonna take away his pain
Time sho nuff
gonna make things better

Time'll take these days away
like teardrops
on the sidewalk when it's hot
Time gonna take away our pain
Time sho nuff
gonna make things
sho nuff gonna make things
Time sho nuff
gonna make things better
(end chorus)
