Tom Waits - Shiver Me Timbers lyrics

The sun is so bright, the sky is so clear

But by the evening, by the evening I can tell

Nothing will help if you won't be here

I'm trying to live my life from day to day

But the sun goes down and steals the hope away

I die a little every night, every night you go again

And every night I know

You won't come though the door

I cry in the middle of the night

The night that never seems to end

Then just when it seems I can't, I die a lillte more

When you held me

When you held my I could dream

I could believe that was enough

But in the darkness, in the darkness I can see

Whatever will be will never be love

I'm gonna try to keep the flame alive

But when the cold wind blows

I doubt that we'll survive

I die a little every night, every night you go again

And every night I know

You won't come though the door

I cry in the middle of the night

The night that never seems to end

Then just when it seems I can't, I die a lillte more

I wish that I could find a reason to let you go

But I don't know where to start

Every road leads back to your heart

I die a little every night, every night you go again

And every night I know

You won't come though the door

I cry in the middle of the night

The night that never seems to end

Then just when it seems I can't, I die a lillte more

I die a little every night, every night you go again

And every night I know

You won't come though the door

I cry in the middle of the night

The night that never seems to end

Then just when it seems I can't, I die a lillte more
