It Comes And Goes
Embracing Life's Ebb and Flow: Johnny Cash's It Comes And Goes
Lyrics
I've been up and down and out
I've experienced ups and downs and difficult times.
And I have been around
I have a diverse range of experiences.
And I felt good more times than I felt bad
I've had more positive moments than negative ones.
Loving you felt better than
Loving you was the best feeling I've ever had.
I've never known before
Experiencing your love was unprecedented for me.
Losing you is the worst thing that I've had
Losing you is the most painful thing I've endured.
But it comes and goes
Painful experiences come and go in life.
It's like a blue wind blows
Challenges are unpredictable, like a gust of wind.
Yes it goes and comes
The difficulties fade, but they return.
But now I'm living some
Currently, I'm experiencing a period of relative peace.
And today my high didn't get any lower
Today, my mood hasn't worsened.
And my low didn't fall anymore
My lowest point hasn't declined further.
But sometimes when I drop my guard
Occasionally, when I let my guard down, my emotions become evident.
Everybody knows
Others notice because I can't hide my feelings.
Because I can't control my feeling
I lack control over my emotions.
And there isn't much sign of healing
Healing seems distant or slow.
Because when the pain is
Pain is ever-present.
There it always shows but it comes and goes
The pain is visible, but it fluctuates.
In my mind I'm holding you
In my thoughts, I'm still with you.
And loving you again
Imagining being in love with you once more.
I hear you laugh and feel you cling to me
I remember your laughter and the closeness we shared.
Although it's over I'm still holding
Even though it's over, I can't completely let go.
On a little bit
Clutching onto the memories despite the pain.
And there's a lot of pain in the memories
Memories evoke a significant amount of pain.
But it comes and goes
Painful experiences continue to come and go.
It's like a blue wind blows
Challenges reappear, akin to a gust of wind.
Yes it goes and comes
Difficulties fade and return cyclically.
But now I'm living some
Currently, I'm coping with life's challenges.
