Who's Who
C. Hicks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who's Sorry Now?
Who's Sorry Now?
Who's heart is aching for breaking each vow?
Who's sad and blue?
Who's crying too?
Just like I cried over you.
Right to the end,
Just like a friend,
I tried to warn you somehow.




You had your way,
Now you must pay;

I lost about 80 pounds and got into the best shape of my life listening to this album.. I would get up @4:30AM And go walking while it was still dark .. I had my disc man and when the spirit hit me I would pause for a second and dance under the streetlight πŸ˜ŠπŸ’œ
