Can’t Do It Again Songtext
von Jimmy Barnes

Well the rain came down
I stood there soaking wet
Wondering what I was doing there
You locked me out again
There′s a long black cloud
Hanging right over my head
You got a temper like a hurricane
I can't talk you down, my friend

The light is slowly fading
I can′t see my way so clearly now
I'm just tired of waiting
For that time when you'll let me down

Well I′m the one who always ends up crying
Oh no, I can′t do it again
And I can't see the use of slowly dying
Oh no, I can′t do it again
I used to love it when the sparks were flying
Now I can't keep on trying
I can′t do it again, can't do it again


For a long long time
You could do no wrong
I was happy just to follow you
And I knew my place, behind
And all my friends
They just wondered why
I kept on hanging ′round with you
Being treated so unkind

For a while I guess all that crazy
It just made me feel alive
But now I need some distance
If I'm going to survive

You know, I'm the one who always ends up crying
Oh no, I can′t do it again
And I can′t see the use of slowly dying
Oh no, I can't do it again
I used to love it when the sparks were flying
Now I can′t keep on trying
I can't do it again, can′t do it again

And time moves on
Trust long gone
And I don't need this, anymore

The light is slowly fading
I can′t see my way so clearly now
I'm just tired of waiting
For that time when you'll let me down


You know that I′m the one who always ends up crying
Oh no, I can′t do it again
And I can't see the use of slowly dying
Oh no, I can′t do it again
I used to love it when the sparks were flying
I can't keep on trying
Now I can′t do it again, can't do it again

I said I′m the one who always ends up crying
Oh no, I can't do it again
And I can't see the use of slowly dying
Oh no, I can′t do it again
I used to love it when the sparks were flying
But I can′t keep on trying
I can't do it again, I can′t do it again

I can't do it again
Oh no
