paroles de chanson Can't Be There - Coda Conduct

Try and call, at 2 a.m., you say you're down at the station
So I ask what you're doing there, you just say that you're waiting
And I know that when you're down, you feel like hell at night
So I don't know what to say
You tell me you don't think there's any way to set it right
And no one's there to make you get behind the yellow line

You went home safe, and woke up next day
Like no worries, nothing here to see, my head's okay
I'm battling the weather, oh I'm singin' "Umbrella"
You're pretending there's no rain
Yeah, two years to learn to face
That he had to be the first to change
Yeah, two tears, and words oughta break my heart
And still it hurts to say, that

Who
Can't be there for you
Yeah, I want to but the first step's up to
You, you
Can't be there for you
Can't be there to help you out if I need saving, too

You had to put tape on the cracks on the windows
And the damn tap just keeps on dripping
It isn't exactly what you'd call a home
But it's something you can live in
And fifteen years, yeah the time passed
And I can't imagine what it must have been like, but
When I call, I can hear the same slur in your voice
Same man, same wine glass

Back then I used to want to make you better but
All grown up, now I get that I can't 'cause
I know now, what mum knew then
You can't be there for someone, until they ask
So you can find somebody who can fix your tap
And you can patch up your windows with tape
But I'm not gonna sit and wait and watch you pour another one
I can't help you if you don't wanna change

Who, who
Can't be there for you
Yeah, I want to but the first step's up to
You, you
Can't be there for you
Can't be there to help you out if I need saving, too

And ever since I was a girl, been shown the mother and the nurse
And hope that I should always keep on lovin' if it hurts
'Cause it's sons and soldiers, and nothing could be worse
Than to turn around and make yourself the one that's coming first
And I know it doesn't make me any less of a daughter, or less of a lover
Or less of a friend, to find the strength to confess that I fought enough
And now it's your turn
'Cause you're the only one that's left in the end so

Don't paint my pain as virtue
Don't paint my pain as virtue
Don't paint my pain as virtue
Don't paint my pain
'Cause I keep on loving

You
Can't be there for you
Yeah, I want to but the first step's up to
You, you
Can't be there for you
Can't be there to help you out if I need saving, too

You
'Cause I keep on loving
You
