(Michael McDonald)
I met a man standing on the street today
Through his eyes, the world looked so grim
As if we all don`t know just what it`s like
When the rain falls down and the lightning strikes
But then girl, I`ve been runnin` most of my life
And I`ve been around long enough to learn
That one man`s blue sky is another man`s rain
And no matter what is in it for me, I only know for him
[Chorus:]
These are bad times
These are real bad times
These are sad times
These are bad times
I know we each bear the brunt of our lies
But not until the spirit sinks so low
Does a man start to feel all alone
And when he turns his back on trust
Then they`ve only just begun
[Chorus]
Oh, I can see there ain`t much good left to save
If all we have, we let time erase
But I can still make the blues fade away
Till all I see is your sweet face
