I can’t do right by you
(Joe Pereira)

I gave my best, it fell apart
‘Cause your intentions were to break my heart
break my heart
lost the will, Can’t make it right
And when we disagree you start a fight
You start a fight

I know I can’t be perfect like you wanted me to be,
I know
The one to meet your expectations and grow

It seems I can’t do right by you
No matter what I say or do
I try to mend what’s torn apart,
But you keep going back to the start
It seems I can’t do right by you
No matter what I try to do
It’s never good enough for you
Though I expect nothing from you
Oh no no, nothing from you

I build a bridge, you tear it down
I watch my hopes go sinking to the ground
Into the ground
I try to fix it, but you don’t care
You twist my words like I was never there,
never there
