Come what may

(Griggs/Byrd)


Things are black for me today
All is gone and come what may
Pride and greed has once more failed
A ship of joy has once more sailed

No need to worry about what's in store
If you do it only hurts you more
This time fate played a bad hand
Now I'm a lonely lonely man

Some say now and others then
When death comes you know not when
Play life's game with much intrigue
You may lose and only bleed

Things are black for me today
All is gone and come what may
Pride and greed has once more failed
A ship of joy has once more sailed

People speak of days passed on
Then they say they can't go on
When darkness pierces like a knife
Shades of love must fill your life

Some day now and others then
When death comes you know not when
Play life's game with much intrigue
You may lose and only bleed

No need to worry about what's in store
If you do it only hurts you more
This time fate played a bad hand
Now I'm a lonely lonely man

People speak of days passed on
Then they say they can't go on
When darkness pierces like a knife
Shades of love must fill your life

Some day now and others then
When death comes you know not when
Play life's game with much intrigue
You may lose and only bleed
