Blues Traveler Travelers & Thieves Sweet Pain Music & lyrics: john popper If cyrano de bergerac Fell prey to the blades of fifty men With a heart and a sword he'd drive them back Perchance to see roxanne's eyes light up the sky again And when beauty kind and full of grace Again denied the beast her hand The beast he turned and hid his face And tried with all his might and magic to understand And once upon a time You know i used to wondery why You know no one should need to cry In pain of a heart forbade to fly But you learn to say goodbye As you whisper beneath a sigh Sweet pain Can't you plainly see? Sweet pain You know it matters to me Sweet pain Won't you make me feel at home? Sweet pain Don't you dare leave me alone Sometimes a life that seems hard to take Is soothed for a while by an old friend Leaving a bad need in its wake Sad how, some friendships never ever seem to end Well all of my heroes up and died Songs and a dream are left for me What did them in, not suicide Just a lengthy friendship and a dream of (how) it could be And isn't it a crime? Was it more than they could bear? You know they did not even care At all and they might have something there But i'm here and i don't see where All i hear is their silent prayer Sweet pain Is it so terribly wrong? Sweet pain To want to come along Sweet pain Won't you make me smile? Sweet pain If only for a while Can you feel what i feel? So we can establish that the pain is real Don't be afraid and i'll do the same for you And we'll just hang on and we'll make it, make it through There's got to be a reason it works out this way And there's something deep inside me That makes me have to play For you For you In no position to give advice My heart it spoke and i wrote it down And you know every wisdom has its price My head up in the stars And my feet planted firmly on the ground When will i embrace this life i see? I've been wondering for so long Thinking back, the truth may be I've been unaware but i've been living it all along And it didn't cost a dime And it did not come for free It just would not let me be But it never conquered me Just a doorway and a key And i think that we both agree Sweet pain Is sometimes what you need Sweet pain It allows the blood to bleed Sweet pain From the moment of your birth Sweet pain You know it keeps you here on earth |
