U2 sometimes you can't make it on your own lyrics

Tough, you think you've got the stuff

You're telling me and anyone

You're hard enough



You don't have to put up a fight

You don't have to always be right

Let me take some of the punches

For you tonight



Listen to me now

I need to let you know

You don't have to go it alone



And it's you when I look in the mirror

And it's you when I don't pick up the phone

Sometimes you can't make it on your own



We fight all the time

You and I... that's alright

We're the same soul

I don't need... I don't need to hear you say

That if we weren't so alike

You'd like me a whole lot more



Listen to me now

I need to let you know

You don't have to go it alone



And it's you when I look in the mirror

And it's you when I don't pick up the phone

Sometimes you can't make it on your own



(This is it)

I know that we don't talk

I'm sick of it all

Can, you, hear, me, when, I, sing

You're the reason I sing

You're the reason why the opera is in me



Well hey now, still gotta let ya know

A house doesn't make a home

Don't leave me here alone



And it's you when I look in the mirror

And it's you that makes it hard to let go

Sometimes you can't make it on your own

Sometimes you can't make it

Best you can do is to fake it

Sometimes you can't make it on your own
