John Wesley Harding - Handful of Sand текст песни

Darling, when you sit up and stare all night

I get the feeling that something aint right

My heart starts to beat on my drum-tight skin

I just wanna kick it in

I know you start weeping when you think that Im sleeping

I know you know that you just cant win

But Ill try my best

You know honey I swear I will

Darling, you pretend to sleep but I know its a lie

This bed is wet from the tears you cry

I lie there frustrated, dont know what to do

Sometimes I cant get through to you

I know you cant explain whats giving you pain

And you just cant contain all your blues

But Ill try my best

You know that I have sworn I will

So now if you wanna come out and talk about it

Ill try to understand

If you wanna yell it, scream it, please shout it

And Ill try to understand

But for now you know I just cant stand

To see this sand

Slipping out of my hand

Darling, when you just cant take it anymore

Shout it out, now, tell me what youre crying for

Dont let it rage inside, that wont help you none

Be like staring into the barrel of a loaded gun

I will help you feel more self-assured

And even if it cuts to the core

Ill try to take it like a man

Yeah, Ill try my best

Honey I swear I will

So now if you wanna come out and talk about it

Ill try to understand

If you wanna yell it, scream it, please shout it

And Ill try to understand

But for now you know I just cant stand

To see this sand

Slipping out of my hand
