<poem> | |||
Don't give up | |||
Darling, don't give up on me | |||
Even if I kick and scream | |||
I'm saying all that I can | |||
I need someone to understand | |||
I can't explain | |||
I can't express these sentiments | |||
I try, but I implode instead | |||
It hurts my heart, it hurts my head | |||
Don't even know where to begin | |||
I wish I could say it all to you in iambic pentameter | |||
I'd improvise high notes like Thelonious when he's jammin’ it | |||
I'd let it all out, and there's no doubt | |||
You would help me understand | |||
What the hell is inside this messed-up head | |||
And you'd always be here for me | |||
But that's not it | |||
That's not what I meant at all | |||
No, you're not getting it at all | |||
You gotta try, keep coming back | |||
'Cause I'm a hard nut to crack | |||
A jumbled mess tangled up in a Gordian Knot | |||
All my mom could do was talk | |||
And wonder why she couldn't reach | |||
Her silent child, try as she might | |||
I wish I could say it all to you in iambic pentameter | |||
I'd improvise high notes like Thelonious when he's jammin’ it | |||
I'd let it all out, and there's no doubt | |||
You would help me understand | |||
What the hell is inside this messed up head | |||
And you'd always be here for me | |||
La la la la | |||
I wish I could say it all to you in iambic pentameter | |||
I'd improvise high notes like Thelonious when he's jammin’ it | |||
I'd let it all out, and there's no doubt | |||
You would help me understand | |||
What the hell is inside this messed up head | |||
And you'd always be here for me | |||
You and me together | |||
Holding on for life | |||
You and me together | |||
Holding on for life | |||
You and me together | |||
You and me forever | |||
You and me together | |||
Seasons come and seasons go | |||
Where they stop no one knows | |||
'Round and 'round and 'round we go | |||
</poem> </tabber> | |||
