Troubled Mind

I met her in a honky tonk one weekend night,
we danced and we talked until it was light.
We fell for eachother right from the start,
it seemed that nothing could keep us apart.

Well we fell hard and we fell fast,
I thought our love would be the one to last.

I know a girl with a troubled mind,
I'm gonna do what it takes to make her mine.
I'm gonna hold her close, gonna treat her right.
I'm gonna fall asleep with her tonight.

Well her past is dark as a raven's eye,
but she's as bright as the morning sky.
She's been through the worst, but she sees all the best.
Lord, let me put her mind at rest.

I know a girl with a troubled mind,
I'm gonna do what it takes to make her mine.
I'm gonna hold her close, gonna treat her right.
I'm gonna fall asleep with her tonight.

Well I fell in love with her, and her with me,
we were talkin' 'bout forever, and then suddenly.
Fate reared up its ugly head, and now there's no one in my bed.
but I ain't givin' up the fight, I'm gonna get her back,
I'm gonna make things right.

I know a girl with a troubled mind,
I'm gonna do what it takes to make her mine.
I'm gonna hold her close, gonna treat her right.
I'm gonna fall asleep with her tonight.
