Jackson Browne - For Taking the Trouble songtekst

Je score:

For taking the trouble, for hanging on and tryin'

Now you've been working through the rubble of a shattered mind



Yeah Baby, tell me why the tears are falling from your eye

Tears of laughter, tears of grief, are they the tears of a captured thief?



You thought that you were home free, thought you had her well in hand

But there were things about her you didn't understand



Yeah Baby, tell me how you're gonna keep that promise now?

To live your life without regret and make it work with what you get



You didn't then, but now you know

When she began to lie-you really should have let her go



You're learnin' how to talk about it, you're learnin' how to bend

It's like you're learning how to walk all over again



Yeah Baby, tell me who you're gonna give your lovin' to?

That girl who catches every eye

Or the one you can set your compass by



You set it by her soulful smile

The fire in her eye

And the way she goes that extra mile

The love you wanted this to be

Is somewhere down the line

You'll find her eventually



Your grandma and her grandma 

Sittin' 'round heaven discussin' the law

Lovin' that girl was not your crime, 

Livin' without her gonna take some time

Lovin' that girl next thing you knew, 

You'd turned away from the thing you do

Lovin' that girl, you couldn't see 

Living without her gonna make you free
