Lyrics

I Don't Mind

I was lost without you

I was sinking in a storm

I thought the world had left me

Now I know that I was wrong

It's Resurrection Day

Gonna leave it all behind

Gonna clear my mind of you

Gonna pave my own road

I don't mind -what you want

I don't mind when your

Hounds begin to beg

I don't mind when you

Kick the ones that fall

I don't mind - I don't mind at all

It's better to be lonely

Than to live with all your pain

I was walking through the desert

I was calling out your name

But I never got an answer

Still I loved you just the same

The sun began to burn me

Reminded me of all those days

I don't mind -what you want

I don't mind when your

Hounds begin to beg

I don't mind when you

Kick the ones that fall

I don't mind - I don't mind at all

When you leave me for another

I won't be calling out your name

Now that burning sun is setting

Only one thing left to say

I don't mind -what you want

I don't mind when your

Hounds begin to beg

I don't mind when you

Kick the ones that fall

I don't mind - I don't mind
