Love She Can't Live Without

(Clint BlackSkip Ewing)



He gives her attention, he's constantly

Carefully planting the seeds

The only thing missing, is really the only thing she needs

And he can't give that to her and she can't find it with him

So she'll have to find her way out of love she's not really in



She can live with what goes with leaving

She knows it's the only way

Though it kills her to give up believin'

She can't live with herself if she stays

She could settle for what she'd be feeling

If she gave in and worked this one out

She doesn't want the kind of love she can live with

She wants the kind of love she can't live without



She looks in the mirror and sees all the sadness in her eyes

It's never been clearer what he's asking her to sacrifice

But she can't be his forever, she can't even be his for now

She'll have to be kind to them both and let go of him somehow



She can live with what goes with leaving

She knows it's the only way

Though it kills her to give up believin'

She can't live with herself if she stays

She could settle for what she'd be feeling

If she gave in and worked this one out

She doesn't want the kind of love she can live with

She wants the kind of love she can't live without



And the hardest part is she loves him

But she doesn't want the kind of love she can live with

She wants the kind of love she can't live without
