Lyrics

So Far Past Pain
Words and melody - Lennox Armstrong
Music - Ron Jenkins

Chorus
I’m so far past pain
I’ve paid my dues
I’ve learned my lessons well
I’ve walk a mile in your shoes
I made it through loneliness pass my deep, dark memories I was lost
But love rescued me

Verse 1
When I look back
From where I’ve come
Memories some how become undone and
My reality fades from memories views
And paints a picture
Different than the pain I’ve been through

But oh I remember those sweet days
The joy we shared was so amazing

And I choose to be reminded of the times we shared before love came undone

Feelings changed between you and me
Yes they did
Love failed to be all that it could be
And now I’ve heard

Now I’ve heard different points of view
How you didn’t deserve you and how I was no good for you

But don’t you remember how it felt to be
Free to be loved with no painful memories
Didn’t you love me
Didn’t you tell me so
Oh the feeling was so real
Ahhh there love touched my soul my soul
And in spite of all the changes I been through I’m thankful for
the love we once knew

Chorus
I’m so far past pain
I’ve paid my dues
I’ve learned my lessons well
I’ve walk a mile in your shoes
I made it through loneliness pass my deep, dark memories I was lost
But love rescued me

Bridge - music interlude

Chorus
I’m so far past pain
I’ve paid my dues
I’ve learned my lessons well
I’ve walk a mile in your shoes
I made it through loneliness pass my deep, dark memories I was lost
But love rescued me
