Just Because

from Tricks Of The Light by Gronk

lyrics

Think I'll stay home tonight and get some quiet time -
Just me and a couple of bottles of wine.
You say I'm way too shy, that I'll screw up my life
If I let opportunities slip and pass by,

But just because I want to believe you doesn't mean that I can,
And just because I want to be like you doesn't mean that I am.

This world is so opaque, don't know which road to take.
Should I go any faster or step on the brake?
They say we'll claim the sky, that we will never die;
And I'd probably be happier if I took their advice,

But just because I want to believe it doesn't mean that I can,
And just because I want to be like that doesn't mean that I am.

Now I can't face the sun. I cannot get things done,
'Til that lost opportunity's finally won -
So I'll turn the lights down low, switch on the radio,
And I'll shore up my ruins and let the stream flow ...

But just because I want to believe you doesn't mean that I can,
And just because I want to be with you doesn't mean that I am;
Just because I want to believe you doesn't mean that I can,
And just because I'd like to be like you doesn't mean that I am.
