Couldn't take it, by Invisible Poet Subscribe to rss feed for Invisible Poet

You don’t have to worry about me leaving.
I’m not like you.
I don’t think you could take the pain you put me through.
I won’t hurt you like that.
Leaving in the middle of the hardest times, with another
man.
Went on down to California to get a real nice tan.
Well now that were back to the way things were I don’t
want to screw things up.
So I’m not leaving. 
You couldn’t take the pain you put me through.
Left without saying goodbye, didn’t even leave a note.
All you did was get on the next boat. 

I don’t want to hurt you the way you hurt me.
I couldn’t take the guilt of causing that kind of pain.
I’ll be with you even when it starts to rain.
All I ever wanted was to know your name.
After a few years of marriage my fiery love was still
their.
After a few years of marriage I was tame.
But then she left and tore my heart to pieces.
I couldn’t take the pain I went on down to the bar.
Came out four hours later my pain was gone but only for a
short time. 
It came again in the late hours of the night I fell to my
knees crying.
I had lost the only thing I ever loved, she was the reason I
woke up day after day.
I couldn’t take the pain, went on down to the bridge.
Climbed up on to one of the posts, leaped off that’s the
last I remember of my life on earth.
I couldn’t take the pain, I don’t think you could either
so I won’t hurt you like that.
