Silent Tree Music - Song Lyrics 

BUT YOU CAN'T GET THERE
FROM HER
Copyright © 2004 - mickterry.com

1: You're trying to find direction.
You're looking for forever.
You're searching for Nirvanah, as it were.
You think she's pure perfection.
You'll follow her wherever.
But you can't get there from her.

CHORUS:
Yeah, she sure looks good. She may just be the one.
But it wouldn't hurt if your own self-worth
weren't so close to being none.
Yeah, she sure looks good. She may just be the one.
But it sure would help if you brought your self
to a place out in the sun.

2: You've had a life that’s crappy.
You've had your share of downers.
You're looking for a new life, that's for sure.
You think she'll make you happy.
You'll build your life around her.
But you can't get there from her.
CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
Could it be you've got what it takes
to turn your life around?
Isn't that a bit too much
to ask of someone else?
But somewhere deep inside you,
you might find solid ground.
Then you can build a stronger life
based on a stronger self.

3: You think she'll do you wonders.
You think she'll fill your needs.
You think she'll save you from what might occur.
But you'll just drag her under
your baggage and debris.
Is that a destination
you really want to see?
Would you rather have a location
where both of you are free?
Then you might get there with her.
Then you might get there with her.
CHORUS:

To other cautionary song lyrics:   GLOBAL WARNING
A WOMAN LIKE YOU
GONE APE OVER HIM
FULL BODY MESSAGE
GO EASY ON THE GOODS
GO OFF & KILL SOMEONE
BETTER BE A BETTER BOY
YOU COULD GET SERIOUSLY INJURED
DOES SHE KNOW WHAT SHE IS DOING?
To the TOP
