  • If You Can't Love Me - Sting

  • Please sit down just talk to me
  • We'll see if we can talk this through

  • I've tried so hard to understand it
  • Just tell me something that's close to the truth

  • I'd rather you were cruel than kind

  • Is all that I'm demanding

  • I've given up on peace of mind
  • For you open wound of understanding
  • You can't be here and someplace else

  • If your mind is in that other place

  • You're trying to convince yourself

  • But you're lying in my face

  • I've listened 'til my head would spin

  • I don't want half of anything
  • The sand sits in the hourglass

  • And time slips through our fingers fast
  • Your counterfeits deceived me

  • If you can't love me this way

  • Then you must leave me

  • Tell me how it came to this

  • Just don't think to spare me this

  • Perhaps the truth can set us free

  • From the half truths ensnaring you and me
  • This black hole of intensity
  • Collapses on its density

  • And sucks me to a darker place

  • That hides behind a broken face

  • Keep up appearances they say
  • And all those reasons you might stay

  • Ring hollow in my mind today

  • I've listened 'til my head would spin

  • I don't want half of anything

  • I don't want half of anything
  • The fields are sown with seeds of doubt

  • The wine is warm you spit it out

  • This drinking won't relieve me

  • If you can't love me this way

  • If you can't love me this way

  • If you can't love me this way
  • Then you must leave me

  • The patterns in the distant stars
  • Our fates upon a loom

  • The changes in the temperature
  • When you walked into a room

  • The smell of your perfume
  • The taste of your skin

  • All those bitter reminders
  • Of the failed state I'm in

  • How do I breathe now how do I inhale
  • I'm a diver on the seabed my oxygen's failed
  • How do I wake up how do I sleep
  • How do I laugh now I can't even weep
  • Where do I run to where do I hide

  • An insect preserved in formaldehyde
  • Yesterday's paper its pages curled

  • How can I live in this broken world

  • Keep up appearances they say

  • But all those reasons you might stay
  • Ring hollow in my mind today

  • I've listened 'til my head would spin

  • I don't want half of anything

  • I don't want half of anything

  • The sand it falls in the hour glass

  • And time slips through our fingers fast

  • And nothing that you say relieves me

  • If you can't love me this way

  • If you can't love me this way

  • If you can't love me this way
  • Then you must leave me
