Lisa Brokop - I Can't Lyrics

I got the thunder in my bones, I got the trouble in my soul
I've been drownin' 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 off rain and risin' high
Sometimes all that you can do is just survive

I can' t row you across right now, I can't row you across right now
I'm too busy buildin' 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

I've been a fool for holdin' on, I've been a fool for bein' strong
I've been a fool for love and I'll be a 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

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

Let go the anchor, let go the chains
Don't reach for me, don't call my name
Shake off the past and baby just swim for the shore
Throw me a kiss and hope for the best
Take what you will, take what you get
Do what you want but I can't save you no more

I got the thunder in my bones, I got the trouble in my soul
I've been 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

Let go the anchor, let go the chains
Don't reach for me, don't call my name
Shake off the past and baby just swim for the shore
Throw me a kiss and hope for the best
Take what you will, take what you get
Do what you want but I can't save you no more
