The Hold Steady - Wonderful Struggle lyrics
[The Hold Steady - Wonderful Struggle lyrics]
I was trying to save my life
I only said the good girls
Don't always do what's right
I was offering an example
Trying to prove a greater point
About how your sons and daughters
Never meant to disappoint you
I'm sorry for making all of this trouble
Holly, I'm sorry
Young love is such a wonderful struggle
I was trying to be so righteous
I was just trying to get thanks
We got baptized in the river
We got blissed out on the banks
I was stranded on East Hennepin
Trying to get back south
Didn't want to hurt nobody
I just wanted to get out
I'm sorry for making all this trouble
Holly, I'm sorry
Young love is such a wonderful struggle
It's wonderful, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, the struggling
The struggling, the struggling
The struggling, it's wonderful
I'd rather bleed to death than
Live inside some bubble
Young love is such a wonderful struggle
Gonna try to make it work
I didn't mean to hurt you
Holly, I'm sorry
For all the things that I put you through
Holly, I'm sorry
For all the places I took you to
It's wonderful, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, the struggling
The struggling, the struggling
The struggling, it's wonderful
Young love is such a wonderful struggle
The struggling, the struggling
The struggling, it's wonderful
It's magical, it's mystical, it's musical
It's beautiful
I'd rather bleed to death than
Live in some bubble
Young love is such a wonderful struggle
Gonna try to make it work
I didn't mean to hurt you
