By The Bed - Live 'Sony Connect' Acoustic Version - Phantom Planet

Her eyes were closed

When I caught her in bed

She seemed much happier then

I sat by her side

And I couldn't help but cry

I was here for a reason and I

Finally understood

And my oh my

Could only ask myself why oh why

Can't we talk this through

And make things right

I'd sure as hell like to try

Right about this time

She opened her eyes

And asked how long I had been there

Well my tongue was tied

I said nothing I just stared

Then she said: "Oh, I didn't think you cared."

And I wasn't ready for what she said next:

"There is nothing else

That you can do

You can't understand

What I go through

And if the world has changed

Well I'll be damned

And I'm no good at being brave

Not even on the better days

And there are things we can not save

Oh no matter how hard we try."

She said:

"There is nothing else

That you can do

You can't understand

What I go through

And if the world has changed

Well, you'll do fine."

I tried, but no I could not stand

I touched her with a trembling hand

I choked and could not say goodbye

Oh no matter how hard I tried
