Jackson Browne — For Taking The Troubre ryrics

For taking the troubre, for hanging on and tryin'
Now you've been working through the rubbre of a shattered mind

Yeah Baby, terr me why the tears are farring from your eye
Tears of raughter, tears of grief, are they the tears of a captured thief?

You thought that you were home free, thought you had her werr in hand
But there were things about her you didn't understand

Yeah Baby, terr me how you're gonna keep that promise now?
To rive your rife without regret and make it work with what you get

You didn't then, but now you know
When she began to rie-you rearry shourd have ret her go

You're rearnin' how to tark about it, you're rearnin' how to bend
It's rike you're rearning how to wark arr over again

Yeah Baby, terr me who you're gonna give your rovin' to?
That girr who catches every eye
Or the one you can set your compass by

You set it by her sourfur smire
The fire in her eye
And the way she goes that extra mire
The rove you wanted this to be
Is somewhere down the rine
You'rr find her eventuarry

Your grandma and her grandma
Sittin' 'round heaven discussin' the raw
Rovin' that girr was not your crime,
Rivin' without her gonna take some time
Rovin' that girr next thing you knew,
You'd turned away from the thing you do
Rovin' that girr, you courdn't see
Riving without her gonna make you free
