[Verse 1]
I was standin' there
Holdin' your hand
In the dark of the night
We was way past a prayer

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I felt you slippin' away
You were barely holdin' on

[Chorus]
Well sometimes, sometimes all you got is–
Sometimes, sometimes all you got–
Sometimes, sometimes all you've got is a song

[Verse 2]
You put everything on your wedding ring
And the health and happiness of your family
I'd watch you silently, while I sat there watchin' silently
Praying your rosary, yeah

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I felt you slippin' away
And I knew you wouldn't stay long

[Chorus]
Sometimes, sometimes all you got is–
Sometimes, sometimes all you got–
Sometimes, sometimes all you've got is a song
[Bridge]
I'm gonna sing away the pain
Like I always do, like I always do
I'm gonna sing away the pain
'Til the morning light will break on through
I'm gonna sing away the pain
Somewhere over the rainbow
I'm gonna sing away the pain
And pray that all your pain goes

[Pre-Chorus 3]
When I felt you, felt you slippin' away
You held my hand a-keepin' me strong

[Chorus]
Sometimes, sometimes all you got is–
Sometimes, sometimes all you got–
Sometimes, sometimes all you've got is a song
