Sometimes you can't make it on your own.
Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough

You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I… that’s alright
We’re the same soul
I don’t need… I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

I know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can - you - hear - me – when – I -
Sing, you’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me…

Where are we now?
I’ve got to let you know
A house still doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone...

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

2. Wow. That sure brought THIS thread to a screeching halt!
(I must admit, though, I like BOTH songs. Does that make me a riddle wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a crunchy tortilla?)

4. Have to wonder how many relationships would NOT end
in divorce if these words were taken to heart ..

Maybe it's how those words spoke to me, .. might not mean the same for anyone else. Definately thought provoking though.

5. He wrote the song about his father...
Who died in...2001 or 2002 I think?

The cool thing about good lyrics though, is that they can apply to so many different situations.
