Nothing I can do about It now (1989) Songtext
von Willie Nelson

I′ve got a long list of real good reasons
For all the things I've done
I′ve got a picture in the back of my mind
Of what I've lost and what I've won
I′ve survived every situation
Knowing when to freeze and when to run
And regret is just a memory written on my brow
And there′s nothing I can do about it now

I've got a wild and a restless spirit
I held my price through every deal
I′ve seen the fire of a woman scorned
Turn her heart of gold to steel
I've got the song of the voice inside me
Set to the rhythm of the wheel
And I′ve been dreaming like a child
Since the cradle broke the bow
And there's nothing I can do about it now


Running through the changes
Going through the stages
Coming round the corners in my life

Leaving doubt to fate
Staying out too late
Waiting for the moon to say goodnight
And I could cry for the time I′ve wasted
But that's a waste of time and tears
And I know just what I'd change
If went back in time somehow
But there′s nothing I can do about it now

Running through the changes
Going through the stages
Coming round the corners in my life

Leaving doubt to fate
Staying out too late
Waiting for the moon to say goodnight
And I could cry for the time I′ve wasted
But that's a waste of time and tears
And I know just what I′d change
If went back in time somehow
But there's nothing I can do about it now


I′m forgiving everything that forgiveness will allow
And there's nothing I can do about it now
