Dag Nasty: "Trouble Is" Lyrics

be prepared

I know what's coming next

if she's entertaining doubts I guess that you know what is best

so I should

be prepared

to make due with what is left

and if I can't prepare myself at least I know what to expect

my mind's made up about her

I couldn't live without her

so many times

so many times

I should have thanked god that I have her

and when I'm back home

safe in her arms

don't knock on her door

don't pick up your phone

if she's entertaining doubts how do I explain

a grain of salt for her to take with the things that you say

despite the distance give me trust

and I will bring it home to you

give me till nothing's left but patience and I will bring it home to you

she only wants to spare you and I the time

we so faithfully invested

she throw it in our faces

you've been taken advantage of

is that all I'm capable of ?

if it's just bitterness don't let it blind her
