Letra de la canción 'FOR THE SAKE OF THE SONG' de 'TOWNES VAN ZANDT'

By townes van zandt
Why does she sing
her sad songs for me,
iand'm not the one
to tenderly bring
her soft sympathy
iand've just begun
to see my way clear
and itand's plain,
if i stop i will fall
i can lay down a tear
for her pain,
just a tear and thatand's all.

what does she want me to do?
she says that she knows
that moments are rare
i suppose that itand's true
then on she goes
to say i donand't care,
and she knows
that i do

maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song
and who do i think that i am to decide that sheand's wrong.

sheand'd like to think that iand'm cruel,
but she knows thatand's a lie
for i would be
no more than a tool
if i allowed her to cry
all over me.

oh my sorrow is real
even though
i canand't change my plan
if she could see how i feel
then i know
that sheand'd understand

oh does she actually think iand'm to blame?
does she really believe
that some word of mine
can relieve
all her pain?
canand't she see that she grieves
just because sheand's been blindly deceived
by her shame?

nothinand's what it seems,
maybe sheand'll start someday
to realize
if she abandons her dreams,
then all the words she can say
are only lies
when will she see
that to gain
is only to lose?
all that she offers me
are her chains,
i got to refuse

oh but itand's only to herself that sheand's lied
she likes to pretend
itand's something that she must defend,
with her pride
and i donand't intend
to stand her and be the friend
from whom she must hide
