I ain't got nobody here to save me
But don't think that I'm complaining
I'm just saying that nobodies got anyone here at all
Who can save them from their grief
Or give them any relief from all their pain
The sadness comes and goes in me
I mean to say it comes and goes in you
And ain't it true nobody can save you from yourself
But you and you alone know
How to mend those broken bones
Inside your mind
It just takes time
Don't go and cry on somebody else's shoulder
They've got their own sorrows to bear
Maybe when you were young
But not now that you're older
How many of them do you think would really care?
If life's a road I'm doomed to travel it alone
Though I might hitchhike along the way
And lovers come and go
And tell me how they'd like to share their load with me
But I can't be that man for them
I can only be their friend and tell them
That they're on their own
I ain't got nobody here to save me
But then again neither do you
Not your closest friend or lover can begin to comprehend
The deepest thoughts within the trenches of your mind
No one knows how to mend those bones
It just takes time
