Contrary Lyrics - Clifford T Ward

You are consistent, I am lackaday 

You are sufficient, I'm in disarray 

You give me pleasure, I bring you heartache 

You give me light when all is dark and lonely 

You're my concession, I am contrary. 

You are exception, I am more the rule 

You are discretion, I am more the fool 

You show me patience, I take advantage 

An' leave you lost an' on your own an' lonely 

You are forever, I'll come crashin' down. 

INSTRUMENTAL 

You throw me line when I'm clutchin' straws and 

You lift me up when I am down an' lonely 

You're my concession, I am contrary. 

You are consistent, I am lackaday 

You are sufficient, I'm in disarray 

You give me pleasure, I bring you heartache 

You give me light when all is dark and lonely 

You're my concession, I am contrary. 

You're my concession, I am contrary. 

You're my concession, I am contrary. 

You're my concession, I am contrary. 

(and fade).
