Forest trees get hit by lightning
often in the wilderness
just the way you cause excitement might be compared to this
what's the use of letter writing when it could be sung to you
i've seen your magnetism and the way they've come to you

if it hurts sometimes, that's best
it don't work sometimes in this wilderness
do what we must do
cruise on
it's about time we moved on
think about where the good people are.....?? good for me
if it hurts sometimes, that's best
it don't work sometimes in this wilderness

why do all the good things tend to leave so fast
it's the littlest things that sting as the fondest memories pass

is it wise to hold on to someone who should be free
just because we've gone through the motions doesn't mean you belong to me

if it hurts sometimes, that's best
it don't work sometimes in this wilderness
do what we must do
cruise on
it's about time we moved on
think about where the good people are.....?? good for me
if it hurts sometimes, that's best
it don't work sometimes in this wilderness

it don't work sometimes
if it hurts sometimes
