Lyrics

?Justified?
Words & Music © 2004 Henry E. Harris III

I?m strung out, left twisted in the breeze
My consciousness comes and goes like the shifting of the sea
One more drink and I think I could forget
Take all my yesterdays and watch them burn in the sun set
A little less ice bartender and a little more remedy if you can
Throw me a line can?t you see I?m drowning on dry land

Chorus:
Lord knows, Lord knows she had tried
And I believe she was justified
Caught between the truth and a lie
I can see now, she was justified
She was justified

This ain?t no island paradise
No sparkling waters blue
Sending post cards from the edge
Forget-me-nots to you
All I have is a crumpled picture
A face with a view
Tear-stained and faded
Clouded by my solitude

Chorus:
Lord knows, Lord knows she had tried
And I believe she was justified
Caught between the truth and a lie
I can see now, she was justified
She was justified

(Bridge)
Lord knows I?m to blame
I took her love, and I just let it slip, let it fall away
(Solo)
Chorus:
Lord knows, Lord knows she had tried
And I believe she was justified
Caught between the truth and the lies
I can see now, she was justified
She was justified
(Repeat to fade?)
