I Can't Take It, lyric by Cheap Trick

from the songs album Greatest Hits

Words and music by robin zander
Well i saw you today and realized
How i missed my peace of mind
I feel your breath in my ear
But late at night it's you i always think about
That little girl inside of you i once knew
I should have known better
Still the smell of you was on my face
But you were too busy
To notice me last night

Now i can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
I can't take it
I can't make it alone
Oh no, oo, oh no

Then i tell myself i'll put you down
Don't wanna see your face around
Don't call me up anymore
When i hear your voice it's in my ear
You're kissin' on the phone
It makes it all come clear

Now i can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
I can't take it
I can't make it alone
Oh no, oh, oh no

I try to tell myself
Don't need you anymore
Don't want you hangin' around my door, oh no

Now i can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
I can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
I can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
If it's wrong or right
I can't take it, i can't make it alone

You know how i tried
I can't take it, i can't make it alone
I try tell myself don't need you anymore
I can't take it alone, i can't make it alone
Oh baby, my pretty baby
I can't take it alone, i can't make it alone
