Will It So

Listen: 
http://www.benbruce.com/songs/will-it-so

I’ve been down, many times before
Tell Her I love her, and then She shows me the door
Standing in the rain wondering, “What’s this for?”
And, “I don’t know if I can take it anymore.”

I’ve been dropped, many times before
Dig my way out and then She knocks out the floor
Laying on my back, wondering, “What’s this for?”
And, “I’m not going to take it anymore.”

If there’s one thing that I’ve learned
In all my days
It’s that my life is not own
Unless I will it so
