Theo, where did you go?
I've been waiting for a life to call my own
Wherever you go, there you are
I meant well, but I could only go so far
Call on God, don't call on me
I am not the one you needed me to be
Let me be, let me go
I can't carry you and still carry on
Oh
Karen, can't you tell?
I poured into you like wishes down the well
Now I'm trying to tell you how to be
Afraid that what you do to you, you'll do to me
Call on me, don't call on them
They don't treat you like someone should treat a friend
Let me be, let me go
You can't argue with the body when it knows
Honey, if it hurts
Take your heartache to the one who loved me first
Every trouble comes back around
I decided that I couldn't hand it down
Call on God, don't call on me
I am not the one you needed me to be
Let me be, let me go
I can't carry you and still carry on
Oh
