I Don't Think That I Can Live With This

about

Relationships are difficult, made even more difficult without trust. How does the saying go? The more you try to hold onto something the quicker it will slip through your fingers. Sometimes I had really been so close to walking away, dealing with the jealousy is exausting. It is so hard to work out what you have been deemed guilty of. Every word in this song was so true at the time and it was my way of reacting the the situation that we were going through. So maybe you are going through it too, if so here is the perfect song to play to your other half.

lyrics

Verse 1
Tell me darling what I've done to you?
Why you don't trust me or my love for you?
I bring you flowers and I'm always there for you.
I'm on the edge, I don't know what to do.
I can't believe that I stand accused.
I'm not guilty but I'm condemned by you

Chorus
I don't think that I can live with this,
you're jealous and there's no need for it.
No I don't think that I can live with this no more.

Verse 2
You've become possessive turned our love to chains
I never thought that you could act this way.
I feel a prisoner, I'm now longing to be free.
Back at the start of it you were so good.
Love was easy, just like it should .
Now you don't trust me and you hurt me with your words.

Chorus
I don't think that I can live with this,
you're jealous and there's no need for it.
No I don't think that I can live with this no more.

Verse 3
I've been faithful, you know it's true.
I've been honest in my love for you.
Now I'm tired of proving it to you.
Yes tell me darlin' what I've done to you,
why you don't trust me or my love for you?
If you won't trust me then I'm leaving you for sure.

Chorus
I don't think that I can live with this,
you're jealous and there's no need for it.
No I don't think that I can live with this no more.

John Robert Hunter Salisbury, UK

I am an English singer songwriter based in Salisbury. My music doesn’t fit comfortably in any one genre. Songs like “When Death Divides” has a bit of a Pink Floyd feel to it. Where as songs like “We’ll Leave This Town” is a bit Springsteenish. I love songs that comment on life, that are from the heart, that tell a story. ... more
