Lyrics

Well, you asked me if I'll forget my baby

Expressing uncertainty about forgetting the speaker's baby in the future.

I guess I will, someday

Acknowledging that forgetting is inevitable at some point.

I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way

Accepting the inevitability of undesirable events and changes.

You asked me if I'll get along

Responding positively to the question of getting along without the baby.

I guess I will, some way

Expressing a belief in the ability to move forward despite challenges.

I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way

Reiterating acceptance of life's unpredictable twists.


God gave me that girl to lean on

Acknowledging divine assistance in the form of a supportive relationship.

Then He put me on my own

Reflecting on being left alone after receiving initial support.

Heaven, help me be a man and

Seeking strength from a higher power to face challenges independently.

Have the strength to stand alone

Expressing the desire to stand alone and be self-reliant.

I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way

Reiterating acceptance of life's challenges, despite personal preferences.


You asked me if I'll miss her kisses

Admitting the anticipated longing for the kisses of the departed loved one.

I guess I will, everyday

Expressing the expected daily yearning for the lost affection.

I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way

Reiterating acceptance of life's twists, even in matters of love.

You asked me if I'll find another

Expressing uncertainty about finding another romantic partner.

I don't know, I can't say

Conveying an inability to predict the future of romantic relationships.

I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way

Reiterating acceptance of life's unpredictable nature in love.


God gave me that girl to lean on

Recognizing divine support in the form of a romantic relationship.

Then He put me on my own

Reflecting on being left alone romantically after initial support.

Heaven, help me be a man and

Seeking divine assistance to be strong and independent in love.

Have the strength to stand alone

Expressing the desire to have the strength to stand alone in love.

I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way

Reiterating acceptance of life's challenges in romantic relationships.
