									But I Can?t M. Landgarten 2002 c and p ASCAP
I wish I could find a way
to act the way I know I should
if I?m angry I know that doesn?t work
especially with someone
as helpless as you
I?ve been trying all my life to understand you
searching all my life to replace you
But I can?t
You held me, when I needed you
and when I, needed to be free
there was nothing you wouldn?t do for me 
and nothing that I could let you do
if I opened up to you, you would consume me
so I stay away from you, I want to call
but I can?t
the hardest thing in life is moving on
though the world keeps turning round
you stick to your ways
like the sun up in the sky on the 
cloudiest of days
You hurt her, when I was overseas
and she was never the same
you were sorry, but i always thought
you believed, it was for the best
two wrongs will never make it right
still I don?t forgive you
knowing you?re alone tonight, I want to help you
but I can?t
