I used to to think I had it all goin'
Everything I touched turned to gold
I had women and money, fine clothes and cars
My phone was always busy
and my friends were movie stars

I was always the center of attention
Surely everybody knew my name
My life kept on rollin' just like a river
I was always a winner in the game

Somethin' in my soul was missin'
Deep down I knew it couldn't last
Too many people I had stepped on
Too many tears in my past

Nobody ever really mattered
No one could say I was ever true
And slowly I started fallin' for someone
Who was just exactly like me too

Now my plans and dreams have all faded
Everyone I trusted let me down
The one that I loved married my best friend
And they moved to the rich side of town

I feel lost and abused, so confused
And I've never ever ever been so alone
Lord I'm comin' to you with my heart in my hand
Don't turn me away, you got to hear what I say
'Cause I've got nowhere else to go
