Something Good Coming

I'm watching the water,

Watching the coast.

Suddenly I know,

What I want the most.

And I want to tell you,

Still, I hold back.

I need some time,

Get my life on track.

I know that look on your face,

But there's something lucky about this place.

And there's something good coming,

For you and me.

Something good coming,

There has to be.

And I'm thinking 'bout mama,

And about the kids.

And the way we lived,

And the things we did.

How she never had a chance,

Never caught a break.

And how we pay for our big mistakes.

I know so well the look on your face,

And there's something lucky about this place.

There's something good coming,

Just over the hill.

Something good coming,

I know it will.

And I'm in for the long run,

Wherever it goes.

Ridin' the river,

Wherever it goes.

And I'm an honest man,

Work's all I know.

You take that away,

Don't know where to go.

And I know that look that's on your face,

There's something lucky about this place.

There's something good coming,

For you and me.

Something good coming,

There has to be.
