The Caretaker (Live) Lyrics

My heart burns inside my chest

I can't repress the feeling

That we don't have a lot of time

To mend regrets or unbelieving

I can barely watch your struggling pride

But I swear I'll stay, won't say good-bye

Cuz I'm a caretaker

Please, Lord, don't take her

Can't you see why

Can't you see why I'm a caretaker

Take me and save her!

Wish you knew why

Wish you knew why I can't say good-bye

Green poisons slither to your veins

I can't explain my horror

'Cuz fear is luxury in vain

And drop by drop we're getting poorer

I can only hold you as you cry

I can't take your pain, so I take the time

Cuz I'm a caretaker

Please, Lord, don't take her

Can't you see why

Can't you see why I'm a caretaker

Take me and save her!

Wish you knew why

Wish you knew why I can't say good-bye

The hours pass by, new stars in the sky

No don't say good-bye, don't

Don't say good-bye

The wind in the window

Please, please don't you go

Don't say good-bye!

Cuz I'm a caretaker

Please, Lord, don't take her

Can't you see why

Can't you see why I'm a caretaker

Take me and save her!

Wish you knew why

Wish you knew why I can't say good-bye

I won't say good-bye

I won't say good-bye

My heart burns inside my chest

I can't repress the feeling

Don't say good-bye
