Lyrics
VERSE
Feelin' like a fool, feelin' very, very lost
Sittin' on a bar stool, thinkin' about the cost
Layin' all my lonelies at the altar of romance
Sayin' all my sorrows because I missed a chance
Woe is me

PRE-CHORUS
Thanks for askin,' oh, how I am
I guess I could say "I'm not worth a damn"
But the truth is...

CHORUS
I'm as well as could be expected
After all I put us through
I'm as well as could be expected
And that's not well at all without you

VERSE
You gave me everything; I could not have asked for more
Now I'm just walkin' the floor, I'm just starin' at the front door
I'm wishin' you would walk back through
Until then, I don't know what to do
Woe is me

Repeat PRE-CHORUS/Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
Sometimes it feels like I'm ridin' on a cloud of despair
But I'm gonna keep on hopin' that life won't lay me bare

SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
I'm not well at all, baby, without you
