Vincent O'brien - Troubled Times Troubled Minds Lyrics

I met a girl, looked like a fun girl, she had an optimistic point of view
But when she told me her story all I could hear
Was a lifetime of singing the blues, singing the blues
She told me 'bout all these people, friends and lovers she had met
Some she loved to remember others she tried to forget
Others she tried to forget
Cos some things are done right and some things are done wrong
Nothing moving in straight lines
Sweet words are spoken, promises broken
Troubled times and troubled minds
Troubled times and troubled minds
When she was a kid she hurt her Daddy so bad, some things you will always regret
In his pain he threw it all back at her
You can forgive but you never forget, you never forget
She said 'I never meant to hurt you, and what's done can't be undone
But if we put the past behind us then our future's still to come
Our future's still to come
Cos some things are done right and some things are done wrong
Nothing moving in straight lines
Sweet words are spoken, promises broken
Troubled times and troubled minds
Troubled times and troubled minds
Then one day she was working in a bar, she fell in love and to her surprise
She knew the man who stood beside her
Was never gonna make her cry, he couldn't make her cry
Cos love's never easy and it's harder to find in the fog of a troubled mind
So many mistakes, false move breaks, but this time it's gonna work out fine
This time it's gonna work out fine
Cos some things are done right and some things are done wrong
Nothing moving in straight lines
Sweet words are spoken, promises broken
Troubled times and troubled minds
Troubled times and troubled minds
