Lyrics I Just Can't Take It Anymore - Gram Parsons

I′ve been thinkin' back on it, babe
I guess it′s been useless after all
I'm tired of seein' all the days going by
Tearin′ the numbers off my wall

You′ve been taking up my time and steppin' outta line
And breakin′ up the dreams I had before
And I just can't make it anymore
No, I just won′t take it anymore

I heard once before you were lookin' for a friend
Who′d take the time to really get to know you
But you wanted me to kneel and forgot that I was real
And I guess I'm not content that far below you

But you've been shakin′ up my bed and breaking up my head
So I′m wakin' up an turning in my score
And I just can′t make it anymore
No, I just won't take it anymore

I tried to do my best
And it would have worked I guess
But I couldn′t keep my eyes from seein' through you
So I′ll go on alone
And I'll leave you here at home
And forget the fact I ever even knew you

Well, we could have done a lot
But we certainly did not
So I'll try to do the things I did before
And I just can′t make it anymore
No, I just won′t take it anymore
And I just can't make it anymore
No, I just won′t take it anymore

It sounds so strange without a groove
