When The Good Lord Talked To Jesus Lyrics - Chris Rea

See me moving without warning 

Fast as my legs can run 

And I'm hanging by thin wire 

Been that way since I was young 

Only the good Lord got his reasons 

For turning on his own son

And he beat up on me real bad 

Bad as a dog can be 

He took every smile that I had 

And he threw it all back at me 

Only the good Lord got his reasons 

Make you cry until your eyes can't see 

Well he burned down all that I had 

And left me beat and blind 

Oh he dealt me pain and sorrow 

And every fear that he could find 

When a good Lord talked to Jesus 

Guess I ain't what he had in mind 

Oh when the good Lord talked to Jesus 

I guess I ain't what he had in mind
