You're sitting next to me
You're holding back your tears
You're breathing in your sighs
You're standing by my side
A hand is folded in mine
Another is on your thigh
Was it something I said
Something that I did
Something I did not
Will I ever know just why
Or will I die from trying
Moaning, pleading, lying
I know, I know
Sometimes life just beats us to the ground
I know, I know, you know it well
I know, I know
We've got to where we've gotten standing still
You know I'm done
I've had my fill
I ask myself a lot
What is it you've got
What is it you need
I've got a roof over my head
A half comfortable bed
The bases full and stacked
I know, I know
Sometimes life just beats us to the ground
I know, I know, you know it well
I know, I know
We've got to where we've gotten standing still
You know I'm done
I've had my fill
