Intro
Verse 1
Holding out for troubled waters,
Who knows where the course will tell you?
You've got many fortunate be-liefs.
Like love your girl and love your mother,
Don't wait 'till a cold December;
Who knows when a brother's goin' down?
Chorus 1
Something every girl should know;
Don't count on some to make it home.
Verse 2
'Cos that reminds me of a time when,
All the lights were shining and the,
Light was always more than one could use.
And you were once a shining ocean,
Giving light to those that wanted;
Something more to hold than just the air.
So give me something to remember;
A diamond ring u-pon a finger.
Chorus 2
Something every girl should know;
Don't count on some to make it home.
You don't have to do what you're told,
Guess I'm kinda used to the cold.
