Townes Van Zandt - For The Sake of The Song слова песни
By townes van zandtWhy does she singHer sad songs for me,Im not the oneTo tenderly bringHer soft sympathyIve just begunTo see my way clearAnd its plain,If I stop I will fallI can lay down a tearFor her pain,Just a tear and thats all.What does she want me to do? She says that she knowsThat moments are rareI suppose that its trueThen on she goesTo say I dont care,And she knowsThat I doMaybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the songAnd who do I think that I am to decide that shes wrong.Shed like to think that Im cruel,But she knows thats a lieFor I would beNo more than a toolIf I allowed her to cryAll over me.Oh my sorrow is realEven thoughI cant change my planIf she could see how I feelThen I knowThat shed understandOh does she actually think Im to blame? Does she really believeThat some word of mineCan relieveAll her pain? Cant she see that she grievesJust because shes been blindly deceivedBy her shame? Nothins what it seems,Maybe shell start somedayTo realizeIf she abandons her dreams,Then all the words she can sayAre only liesWhen will she seeThat to gainIs only to lose? All that she offers meAre her chains,I got to refuseOh but its only to herself that shes liedShe likes to pretendIts something that she must defend,With her prideAnd I dont intendTo stand her and be the friendFrom whom she must hide
