I Know We Could Be So Happy, Baby (if We Wanted To Be) Lyrics - Sketches (for My Sweetheart The Drunk) - Jeff Buckley

There's no easy answer 

None to blame or forgive 

Two cripples dancing 

To the end we live 

I'm not with you, not of you 

Not with you, not of you 

You are soft and young to me 

I am the ghost who comes and goes 

And I hope I'll catch you 

In the throws of 

One last look at the wonder 

One last look at the wonder 

Oh God, I love you 

And all the past we once knew 

Some other love becomes you 

Whatever else we come to 

I know we could be so happy, baby 

If we wanted to be 

You are soft and young to me 

I am the ghost who comes and goes 

I'm hoping that I'll catch you 

In the throws 

Of one last look at joy 

That we've become 

But there's no easy answer 

None to blame or forgive 

We were two cripples dancing 

To the bitter end we live 

I'm not with you but of you 

I'm not with you but of you 

Oh God, I loved you 

And all the past we once knew 

Some other love becomes you 

Whatever else it comes to 

I know we could be so happy, baby 

If we wanted to be 

We had a birthplace in common 

We had separate beds and lives 

I'll just sit here and glow 

Break out the oldest pictures 

And hand your ruined letters out to dry 

We had a birthplace in common 

And separate beds and lives 

And lives and lives 

I know that we could be so happy, baby 

If we wanted to be 

I know that we could be so happy, baby 

Yeah oh
