Beth Orton - Pedestal (Original B-Side) lyrics
Your rating:
I'm sitting so high on this pedestal You need to tell me if I might feel if I want to fall Because you don't know how hard it is to cry And ever since you have said goodbye And you can't feel this sad and not a little strong You can't feel this bad and not a little wrong How you gonna know all the answers When you don't know how to question yet And you don't know all the questions yet And there's a look in your eyes of which we never speak Will it make you too strong am I gonna feel so weak? Well I'm not the same as you and I don't want the things you do And all that preaching never let anyone know You cannot reap what you cannot sow You cannot reap what you cannot sow And they never had the patience to let it be Sometimes I've waited years for what I cannot see It must be them not the whole world that lies To neither do I wanna have to say goodbye You can't feel this sad and not a little strong You can't feel this bad and not a little wrong How am I gonna know all the answers If I don't know how to question it And I don't know all the questions yet And there's a look in your eye of which we never speak Will it make me too strong are you gonna feel so weak? Well I'm not the same as you and I don't have the things you do And all this preaching never let anyone know You cannot reap what you cannot sow You cannot reap what you cannot sow You can't feel this sad and not a little strong Just a little strong, just a little strong Just a little strong
