I'm Sorry, Baby, But You Can't Stand In My Light Any More - Bob Mould

I’m sorry baby but you can’t stand in my light anymore

You’re moving back to the shadows

I can’t fight this anymore

I tried to heal you and I tried to fix you

I tried to show you compassion

I tried to listen, I tried to love you even though you were broken

I let you get up close to me, I let you feel the warm and the calm

And you resisted, it took me time to notice

But now I see the shadows as they fall

I always find the broken ones, what does this say about me?

Maybe I’m the broken one, maybe when the lights go down

Maybe I’m the one who feels lonely

I’m sorry baby but you can’t stand in my light anymore

You’re moving back to the shadows

I can’t fight you anymore

Hate to leave you standing in the corner on your own

But you can’t feel the sun unless you open up your heart, yeah

Oh, I’m sorry baby

I’m sorry baby, I’m sorry baby

I’m sorry baby, I’m sorry baby

I’m sorry baby, you can’t stand in my light anymore
