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 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 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 '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 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 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 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) 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
