Lyrics for Shouting in a Bucket Blues
Sometimes I get too drunk I feel so goddamned low I have no place to go, no one to turn to I think about your loving arms, where I'd like to be But it's selfish as can be, and I know it And if I'm sorry for myself, I'm sorry for you too 'Cause I'm the same as you, and I'm burning So I sing for everyone who feels there's no way out So maybe if you all shout someone will hear you Listen to them shout I won't say that I love you 'Cause that would be a lie I can only say I try, and you know it Love is something more or less than words can hope to say It's something day to day in the life we're living Lovers come and lovers go but friends are hard to find Yes I can count all mine on one finger So I sing for everyone who feels there's no way out So maybe if you all shout someone will hear you Listen to them shout The distance that's between us It just never seems to change There's a whole mountain range Of misunderstanding So I sing for everyone who feels there's no way out So maybe if you all shout someone will hear you Listen to them shout
