Trying to keep a candle burning in a hurricane That's what it's like when you love me and you leave me this way Like a dove crying out when he's lost the will to fly Yeah.. shackled down to the earth by your long chain of lies Well, I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns gray But I just can't do it today I can't do it today I can see you dancing in that stranger's arms My world hasn't stopped turning but it's falling apart Every breath that I take's a little closer to sane Yeah, they say that time is a healer but it's still a long, long ways away 'Cuz, I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns gray But I just can't do it today I can't do it today Go on and do it today There'a a part of me that wishes I could just forget But I haven't found the mercy yet No mercy yet 'Cuz I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns gray But I just can't do it today I just can't do it today I just can't do it today I just can't do it today Wanna do it today Can't do it today Not gonna do it today
