She Can’t, He Won’t and They’ll Never Songtext
von Tim O’Brien feat. Jan Fabricius

It′s one of those days he doesn't feel like talking
He called in sick and then he took off walking
There′s a torn up picture and a broken frame
He doesn't answer when she calls his name
She wants to find the right words to say
To turn this back around

But she can't, and he won′t, and they′ll never
She can't, and he won′t, and they'll never


She gets in her car and she shuts the door
She′s been sitting there for an hour or more
She doesn't turn her head, she doesn′t turn the key
She's got no place that she wants to be
She wants to tell him he'll have to leave
If he isn′t gonna change his ways

But she can′t, and he won't, and they′ll never
She can't, and he won′t, and they'll never

She tells herself, "I never have my own time
Nothin′ here I can really call mine"
Her folks are gone and the kids are grown
She could try to make it on her own
She wonders if she could ever live alone
She might not ever know

But she can't, and he won't, and they′ll never
She can′t, and he won't, and they′ll never

But she can't, and he won′t, and they'll never
