sometimes you can t make it on your own songs of surrender

U2

Tough, you think you ve got the stuff
You re telling me and anyone
You re hard enough
You don t have to put up a fight
You don t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don t have to go it alone

And it s you when I look in the mirror
And it s you when I don t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can t make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I, that s alright
We re the same soul
I don t need, I don t need to hear you say
That if we weren t so alike
You d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don t have to go it alone

And it s you when I look in the mirror
And it s you when I don t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can t make it on your own

I know that we don t talk
I m sick of it all
But can you hear me when I sing?
You re the reason I sing
You re the reason why the opera is in me

Well, hey now
Still gotta let you know
A house doesn t make a home
Don t leave me here alone

And it s you when I look in the mirror
And it s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can t make it on your own

Sometimes you can t make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can t make it on your own
