Can't Stop You

(album: Before & After - 2002)

I can't stop you lying
Can't stop you feeling down
Off you sliding
Shouldn't be like that now
I can't stop you hiding
When everything's gone wrong
I know you're fighting
Though you don't know what for

We all want to change the world
Or at least we all should
It's the way it's meant to be
It's a great great shame
What a beautiful day it would have been

I can't stop you dreaming
Impossible my dreams
No denying
When the magic is so sweet
I can't stop forgiving
No matter what you do
Is that a good thing?
Or am I a bigger fool

We all want to change the world
Or at least we all should
It's the way it's meant to be
It's a great great shame
What a beautiful, beautiful day

I can't stop you lying (I can't stop you lying)
I can't stop you hiding (I can't stop you hiding)
I can't stop you dreaming (I can't stop you dreaming)
I can't stop you
No

We all want to change the world
Or at least we all should
It's the way it's meant to be
It's a great great shame
What a beautiful, beautiful day
