Probably Wouldn’t Be This Way by Tiffany Woys Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Got a date a week from Friday with the preacher's son
Everybody says he's crazy, I'll have to see
I finally moved to Jackson when the summer came
I won't have to pay that boy to rake my leaves
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm probably going on and on
It seems I'm doing more of that these days
[Chorus]
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh, you left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes I feel I'm losing touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky
To have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way
[Verse 2]
Mama says that I just shouldn't speak to you
Susan says that I should just move on
You oughta see the way these people look at me
When they see me 'round here talking to this stone
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody thinks I've lost my mind
But I just take it day by day
[Chorus]
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh, you left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes I feel an angel's touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky
To have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't be this way
[Outro]
Got a date a week from Friday with the preacher's son
Everybody says I'm crazy, guess I'll have to see
Got a date a week from Friday with the preacher's son
Everybody says he's crazy, I'll have to see
I finally moved to Jackson when the summer came
I won't have to pay that boy to rake my leaves
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm probably going on and on
It seems I'm doing more of that these days
[Chorus]
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh, you left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes I feel I'm losing touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky
To have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way
[Verse 2]
Mama says that I just shouldn't speak to you
Susan says that I should just move on
You oughta see the way these people look at me
When they see me 'round here talking to this stone

But I just take it day by day
[Chorus]

I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
I never pictured every minute without you in it
Oh, you left so fast
Sometimes I see you standing there
Sometimes I feel an angel's touch
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky
To have had the chance to love this much
God gave me a moment's grace
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
I probably wouldn't be this way
I probably wouldn't be this way
