For The Sake Of The Song - Townes Van Zandt[00:00:02]

Why does she sing these sad songs for me[00:00:05]

I'm not the one to tenderly bring her soft sympathy[00:00:09]

I've just begun to see my way clear it's plain if I stop I will fall[00:00:17]

I can lay down a tear for her pain a tear and that's all[00:00:29]

What does she want me to do [00:00:37]

She says that she knows moments are rare[00:00:41]

I suppose that it's true and on she goes to say[00:00:45]

I don't care when she knows that I do[00:00:52]

Well maybe she just has to sing[00:01:00]

For the sake of the song[00:01:03]

And who do I think that I am[00:01:09]

To decide that she's wrong[00:01:11]

She'd like to think I was cruel she knows that's a lie[00:01:28]

For I would be no more than a tool if I allowed her to cry all over me[00:01:34]

Oh my sorrow is real even though I can't change my plans[00:01:45]

If she could see how I feel then I know she'd understand[00:01:53]

Does she actually think I'm to blame [00:02:02]

Does she really believe that some word of mine[00:02:07]

Could relieve all her pain [00:02:12]

Can't she see that she grieves just[00:02:14]

Because she's been blindly deceived by her shame [00:02:17]

Well maybe she just has to sing[00:02:25]

For the sake of the song[00:02:28]

And who do I think that I am[00:02:34]

To decide that she's wrong[00:02:37]

I know nothings what it seems maybe one day she'll start to realize[00:02:54]

That if she abandons her dreams[00:03:02]

Then all the words she can say are only lies[00:03:05]

When will she see that the gain is only to lose [00:03:11]

All that she offers me are her chains and I got to refuse[00:03:19]

But it's only to herself that she's lied[00:03:27]

She likes to pretend it's something[00:03:32]

That she should defend with her pride[00:03:34]

And I don't intend to stand here[00:03:40]

And be the friend from whom she must hide[00:03:43]

Well maybe she just has to sing[00:03:50]

For the sake of the song[00:03:53]

And who do I think that I am[00:03:59]

To decide that she's wrong[00:04:01]

Well maybe she just has to sing[00:04:06]

For the sake of the song[00:04:10]
