It Could Be Sweet Lyrics

Portishead
Dummy
It Could Be Sweet
I don't want to hurt you,
No reason have I but fear,
An' I ain't guilty of crimes accused before,
But I'm guilty of fear.
I'm sorry to remind,
But I'm scared of what we're creatin',
This love ain't fair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Ooh now,
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 want to loose,
What we had last time you were leaving,
This love ain't fair

You don't get something for nothing,
Ooh now,

Gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet

But the thoughts we try to deny,
Take a toll upon our lives.
Struggle on the depths of pride,
Tangled up in single lives

'Cause I don't wanna loose,
What we had last time you're leaving,
This love ain't fair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Ooh now,
Gotta try a little harder,

'Cause I don't wanna loose,
What we had last time you're leaving,
This love ain't fair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Ooh now,
Gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet
