[00:00.00]I Can't - Ben Sollee
[00:15.58]This ain't the life I thought I'd live
[00:19.28]This ain't the home I'd hoped we'd make
[00:22.80]This ain't the path I thought I chose
[00:26.32]This ain't the sky I'd hoped we'd see
[00:29.88]This ain't the tree I thought would grow
[00:33.28]This ain't the god to which I pray
[00:36.59]This ain't the song I thought I'd write
[00:40.36]These ain't the words I want to say
[00:45.74]But I can't be your man
[00:58.14]This ain't the flag I thought we'd raise
[01:01.93]This ain't the wind I'd hoped would blow
[01:05.39]This ain't the ship I thought would sail
[01:08.86]This ain't the rose I'd hoped would bloom
[01:12.38]This ain't the play I thought we'd stage
[01:15.81]These ain't the hills I'd hoped we'd roam
[01:19.34]This ain't the sword pulled from the lake
[01:23.02]Yours ain't the heart I want to break
[01:28.15]But I can't be your man
[01:40.91]This ain't the end I thought it'd be
[01:44.44]Are you someone I've loved before
[01:48.05]In this the song the caged bird sings
[01:51.65]Is there some law I choose to ignore
[01:55.01]This is a faith I must defend
[01:58.51]I've tried I can't pretend
[02:02.16]There is a hope I must contend
[02:05.65]We'll find the thread with the strength to mend
[02:11.16]But I can't be your man
[02:20.56]Least not this time around
[02:24.10]And it's something unpredictable
[02:31.25]Like where a leaf might fall
[02:38.19]And it's something unrestrainable
[02:45.16]Like a rooster's morning call
[02:51.07]I can't be your man
