I hate it when this world just knocks the wind right out of you
I’ve heard the news and I can’t believe how
It could have occurred and that it weighs on my brow
It’s got me troubled in a frozen state
But it’s out of my hands and I have to leave it up to fate
Something bad has happened and I don’t know what to do
I hate it when this world just knocks the wind right out of you
What can I do to help the problems and the pain
I know if I don’t do something I’ll never be the same
Trust in me until things fully mend
I’ll be right here for I am you friend
Something bad has happened and I don’t know what to do
I hate it when this world just knocks the wind right out of you
You didn’t ask for this but its now at your door
It’s right in your face and you can’t even ignore
Your down not out so use the strength you’ve stored
Have faith in your self and the lord
Something bad has happened and I don’t know what to do
I hate it when this world just knocks the wind right out of you
I’ll be here waiting with me you can confide
I’ll come when you call to be by you’re side
I hope things get better and your life starts new
I’ve been there in the past and I’ll be there even more now just for you
Something bad happened and I don’t know what to do
I hate it when this world just knocks the wind right out of you
