I Can’t

[Verse 1]
I've got the thunder in my bones
I've got the trouble in my soul
Drowning in tears, my eyes were too proud to cry
I hear you knockin' at my door
But I can't open it no more
'Cause this heart's half full of rain and risin' high
Sometimes all that you can do is just survive

[Chorus]
I can't row you across right now
I can't row you across right now
I'm too busy building a bridge
I can't throw you a line right now
I can't throw you a line right now
I'm too busy tryin' to live

[Verse 2]
Well, I've been a fool for holding on
I've been a fool for being strong
I've been a fool for love and I'll be a fool again (Fool again)
As soon as the rain stops pourin' down
As soon as I find some higher ground
I'll be good as new, but I can't tell you when
So, just keep on strikin' matches until then

[Chorus]
'Cause I can't burn you a flame right now
I can't burn you a flame right now
I'm too busy seein' the light
I can't lift you up right now
I can't lift you up right now
I'm too busy tryin' to fly

[Bridge]
So, let go the anchor, let go the chain
Don't reach for me and don't call my name
Shake off the past, and baby, just swim for the shore
Blow me a kiss and hope for the best
Wish what you will and take what you get
Do what you want, but I can't save you no more

[Verse 3]
I got the thunder in my bones
I got the trouble in my soul
Drownin' in tears, my eyes were too proud to cry
I can't whisper a prayer right now
I can't whisper a prayer right now
I'm too busy, baby, sayin' goodbye

[Bridge]
Let go the anchor, let go the chain
Don't reach for me and don't call my name
Shake off the past, and baby, just swim for the shore (Oh)

[Chorus]
Blow me a kiss and hope for the best
Wish what you will and take what you get
Do what you want, but I can't save you no more
Do what you want, but I can't save you no more
Do what you want, but I can't save you no more
