The news just filtered through
|
There's a new girl hanging out with you
|
I'd kill the messenger
|
But she's my friend and I love her
|
And I know she tells me this for my own good
|
'Cause she knows I've not moved on
|
like a wise girl should
|
|
Now she's lying in my place
|
With the right to kiss my favourite face
|
Now she's curled up in my chair
|
Your fingers in her hair
|
It's more than I can bear
|
|
I do the best I can
|
To go along with God's good plan
|
He thinks it's obvious
|
There's no hope for the two of us
|
So I know he's doing this for my own good
|
'Cause she knows I've not moved on
|
like a wise girl should
|
|
Now she's lying in my place
|
With the right to kiss my favourite face
|
Now she's curled up in my chair
|
Your fingers in her hair
|
It's more than I can bear
|
|
Some may say life is for living
|
But this takes some forgiving
|
And I will try to
|
|
Now she's lying in my place
|
With the right to kiss my favourite face
|
Now she's curled up in my chair
|
Your fingers in her hair
|
It's more than I can bear
|
It's more than I can bear
|

More Than I Can Bear
