lyrics

I said no more
No more troublin' times
No more
No more painful days
I said no more
No more troublin' times
Because I found
found my own way

I used to think
That everything I did
had to be all about that same thing
I used to think
That you tried to hold me back
That you didn't care

But I know now
I had it all wrong
I know now where I can be at home
You gave me the peace of mind and happiness
You gave me something I never had

I said no more
No more troublin' times
No more
No more painful days
I said no more
No more troublin' times
Because I found my own way

I used to feel so confused
Mistreated and refused
I used to think
That all I had to do
Was walk out the door and everybody
Would see things my way

But I know now
I can go on
Child, I know now
All I used to do was done wrong
You told me, just you wait
Because you knew I'd be free again someday

I said no more troublin' times
No more, no more
No more painful days
I said no more,
No more troublin' times
Because I found
I found a way to live
I found a way to live
