Behind Me Now
by
Kevin McCreery

Telephone is ringing, got the past in on the line
Got it goin' into one ear, comin' out the other side
If you take in the beginning it'll get you in the end
Cuz there's always someone tryin' to be the best there's ever been

You tell me that you want it
You tell me what you need
You tell me what you're gonna do

The life I'm tryin' to live in kinda caught you off guard
It's too tough to be easy but it's to good to be hard
Take it all for granted and sometimes you just don't care
What the people are gonna say don't affect me anyway

You want me to tell you what I've heard
You want me to tell you what I know
You want me to come and say the word
You want me to come and watch you go
I put my life on the bottom line
I put my love on a south-bound train
I put myself in a frame of mind
So I won't go insane
Been goin' round the mountain for forty years or more
So long that I've forgotten what I even came here for
Things never take forever and you know I've got the time
For the hungry and the naked and the blind leading the blind
Don't stand in the pourin' rain
Stand in the will of The One
Who put it all behind me now
God's only Son

[alternate MACH version]

Standin' in the pourin' rain
Standin' in the middle of what
I've put all behind me now
Only got so much time

[repeat chorus]
