Say What You Can

Say What You Can - John Martyn/Beverley Martyn

Written by：Beverley Martyn/John Martyn

You make me shaky

The way you play the game

And every time it works the same

You say what you can

But you can't understand

It's bigger than you and it's true

And if I should wake up screaming

It's because of the way we're dealing

And I was so scared that we might fall

Say what you can

But you can't understand

It's bigger than you and it's true

I think of children

Something to leave behind

They keep me worried all the time

Say what you can

But you can't understand

You just have to lie to get by

And if I should wake up crying

It's because of the way we're dying

And I'm so scared that we might fall

And if I should wake up screaming

It's because of the way we're dealing

And I'm so scared that we might fall

You make me shaky

The way you play the game

And every time it works the same

If I should wake up screaming

It's because of the way we're dealing

And I'm so scared

We might fall

We might fall

We might fall

We might fall

We might fall
