can't do it alone

you know i'm not one to complain

but it's not how it used to be

it's not like anyone is to blame

but you can at least look at me

hardships come and go

this i know

this i know

but i've got all the time in the world

all the things you require

all the strength to survive

all the pain and desire

but there's more than just one

in a happy home

if you want it to work

i can't do it alone

i know that you're under a strain

you

me

and the rest of the world

the sunrise and the evening rain

i would risk it all

fairy tales are nice

but it takes work to bring them to life
