You've Got Me All Wrong

The things you're saying are so unfair
And they're sure not true of me!
Maybe in your mind they somehow are
But I know differently!

You make me sound so terrible!
When that's not the way I am
How can you see me in such a way?
I just don't understand!

I'm not perfect by any means
I've got plenty of mistakes to show
But I'm not as bad as you're making out
I would never stoop that low!

It's really sad and disappointing
How everything has gone
You've got the facts all turned around
And you've got me all wrong!

You Turn So Against Me

I can't hold these feelings
Inside anymore
So I'm telling you now
Though I should have before

It seems I can't please you
No matter how hard I try
No matter how much I give
And I just don't know why!

You turn so against me!
Always putting me down
As if you don't like me
Or want me around

It makes me feel lousy!
And that's all it does
It sure doesn't help me
Or make me feel loved

Yet your love is one thing
That I really need!
Because all problems aside
You mean the whole world to me!

You Really Hurt Me

If I didn't care
As much as I do
I wouldn't be feeling
So down and so blue

You really hurt me!
Though I guess I know
You may not have meant to
I'd like to think so

But I can't just forget
And then push it behind
It has no intentions
Of leaving my mind!

So I wanted to tell you
This hurting won't end
Till everything's right
Between us again!

Take A Number Please

I bust my butt like lots of folks
Working hard all week
Doing what I have to do
To get those ends to meet

For that I can't complain at all
And you can bet I won't
I know I'm lucky to have a job
When so many people don't!

But I'm not living on Easy Street
And things get tough sometimes
I pay as much as I can pay
Yet bills still fall behind

I'm honestly trying to get caught up
That's the best that I can do
So if you'll take a number please
You'll get your money too!

Plea Of A Drunkard

I hate that you've seen me at my worst
When I've fallen as low as I could
Too far down and broken to help myself
Back up to the place I once stood

When life wasn't perfect by any means
And goodness knows - neither was I
But I had it together pretty good then
And I walked with my head held up high

I have my excuses and reasons
My demons and heartaches as well
And like everyone - I'm only human
We all have our stories to tell!

So please don't ridicule and judge me
For the unfortunate state I'm in today
Just count all the blessings in your own life
And wish me well as you go on your way

I'm Not So Different

I'm not so different from anyone else
Like you - I'm finding my way
Thru all the ups and downs of life
Making it day by day

I love and I need just like you do
I'm human - can't you see?
We're all in this together friend
Whoever we may be!

You have your limitations
And I know that I have mine
But if we concentrate on those
We'll surely all go blind!

There's good and bad in everyone
There's strength and weakness too
So if you'll look inside my heart
You'll see - I'm much like you!

I Think There's A Misunderstanding

I think there's a misunderstanding
We got our lines crossed no doubt
So why don't we just talk it over
And maybe we'll figure it out

Sometimes it's just in the wording
Or sometimes enough isn't said
And even with honest intentions
Someone can still be misled

Yes - misunderstandings can happen
A pain all around when they do!
But I'm sure that we can resolve this
And I'm hoping you feel that way too

Buried In Everything

You may be expecting
What I have to say
Since we live here together
Day after day

And I know that you know
I do the best I can do
Putting family first always
With all my love too

But lately I'm feeling
Like I just can't keep up
I'm buried in everything!
And it's all way too much!

So whether or not
I've ever said this before
I'm saying it now honey
I really need your support!
