Artist/Band: Portishead
Lyrics for Song: It Could Be Sweet
Lyrics for Album: Dummy [1994]



I don't want to hurt you,

No reason have I but fear,

And I ain't guilty of crimes accused me of,

But I'm guilty of fear.



I'm sorry to remind,

You but I'm scared of what we're creating,

This life ain't fair.



You don't get something for nothing,

Turn now,

Hmm gotta try a little harder,

It could be sweet,

Like a long forgotten dream,



And we don't need them,

To cast the fate we have,

Love don't always shine through,

'Cause I don't wanna lose,

What we had last time your leaving,

This life ain't fair



You don't get something for nothing,

Turn now,

Hmm gotta try a little harder,

It could be sweet.



But the thoughts we try to deny,

Take a toll upon our lives.

We struggle on in depths of pride,

Tangled up in single minds,

'Cause I don't wanna lose,

What we had last time your leaving,

This life ain't fair.



You don't get something for nothing,

Turn back,

Hmm, gotta try a little harder.

Oh, 'cause I don't wanna lose,

What we had last time your leaving,

This life ain't fair.



Oh, no, you don't get something for nothing,

Turn back,

Hmm gotta try a little harder,

It could be sweet.
