Harbour Lyrics

Said she had a problem with life

And she don't really like it

I said you won't get much trouble if you don't invite it

Used to conversate

We'd lay back on the bed

I'd look at her the fondest way

Used to talk about if Egyptians really built the pyramids

The first man to record time and what year it is

Deep shit

Way better than any other woman

And not just a woman that you'd just sleep with

The world was hers

She really knew her worth

But what hurts is people still treated her worse

Never revealed to me that she had a flaw

Plus everyone else's pain mattered more

As true as it all is, she didn't really know the facts

I'll talk about 'em

I at least owe her that

If I could harbour your pain

Take it all away

Would that make you feel better

I promise you that pain ain't forever

If I could harbour your pain

Take it all away

Would that make you feel better

I promise you that pain ain't forever

She had a man but felt a little bit alone

Looked after her brother as if he was her own

Plus her parents said that she need a job

40 hours a week at least would cream the crop

At work, wasn't surrounded by a decent lot

I said don't pay attention to the cheap shots

Plus, they may all get along

But they slag each other off

Try to be like everyone else and you'll be forgot

Early 20's but she was good at out-thinking

Working and saving while her friends were out drinking

Had a dream of her own that she wanted to chase

That job I spoke about

She weren't fond of the place

I said she need to make some time for herself

Time's the only thing you can lose and never find

You can't buy it on shelves

I could tell the bullying at school still affected her

Funny how them same guys wanted to get next to her

If I could harbour your pain

Take it all away

Would that make you feel better

I promise you that pain ain't forever

If I could harbour your pain

Take it all away

Would that make you feel better

I promise you that pain ain't forever

See her man, he never even listened

She wanted everything he didn't

He had to let her go so she could find what she deserves

It broke his heart to break hers

But who was he to cling on to such an angel

Someone so faithful to someone so hateful

If he could make it work with anyone

It would've been her

But he couldn't, he weren't good at the work

He left her wondering if they were even in love

He's out there somewhere with the guilt eating him up

Believes he did the right thing even though it might sting

She's still young enough to find him

She had her life plans

But he weren't the right man

That's right, man

No one could love him like that wife, damn

And it's quite sad 'cause instead of harbouring her pain

He broke her heart and he made her have to start it all again

If I could harbour your pain

Take it all away

Would that make you feel better

I promise you that pain ain't forever

If I could harbour your pain

Take it all away

Would that make you feel better

I promise you that pain ain't forever

I promise you that pain ain't forever
