I Can't Dream Anymore - Fabiana Palladino

Cut my hair the way you wanted Watched you become important Quit my job to make our new home far away Now you're Mr. Successful And I'm queen of the treadmill Trying to stay the size you think that I should stay I used to dream about what I would be Last night I dreamed about a washing machine I keep on giving But I can't stop living A woman needs a little something of her own I like happy endings I don't like depending I keep right on pretending But I can't do that anymore ooh Now you say I'm being silly But you don't know me really You never take the time To ask me how I feel I keep the checkbook balanced I decorate your palace You know I used to think that You were king Somewhere down deep I know You really love me But you can't see that what we have's not all I needed I keep on giving But I can't stop living A woman needs a little something of her own I like happy endings I don't like depending I keep right on pretending But I can't do that anymore You try to tell me I'm not being fair to you But life's too short for a selfish attitude I keep on giving But I can't stop living A woman needs a little something of her own I like happy endings I don't like depending I keep right on pretending But I can't do that anymore No oh, I can't do that anymore

I'm tired of rollin' down the same road Sometimes it feels like I'm just holding onto hope Baby, can't you see we don't have to be anything Other than what we've ever been? How much more can we both take? Is this where we bend or where we break? 'Cause I'm tired of waiting on the other side Waiting for you to make up your mind 'Cause you're making up mine And I'm tired of the hell that we're living in Fighting for what it takes two to win And this time, I'm gonna walk away if things ain't like they were before 'Cause I can't give in anymore Honesty is something we both swore But honestly, I don't know if I know you anymore We don't have to fake We don't have to make this thing bigger than it really is Did you say goodbye? I'm still not sure I've seen the signs, so just say the words 'Cause I'm tired of waiting on the other side Waiting for you to make up your mind 'Cause you're making up mine And I'm tired of the hell that we're living in Fighting for what it takes two to win This time, I'm gonna walk away if things ain't like they were before 'Cause I can't give in anymore I can't give in anymore See, I'm tired of waiting on the other side Waiting for you to make up your mind 'Cause you're making up mine And I'm tired of the hell that we're livin' in Fighting for what it takes two to win This time, I'm gonna walk away if things ain't like they were before 'Cause I can't give in anymore I can't give in anymore I'm tired of rollin' down the same road

Oh babe You could have been a bad girl Wasted all my time You could have got me mad girl Made me lose my mind But you did what you had to do An' every word you said to me was true You gave me what I asked for I can't ask for anymore than you Makes me very proud baby To know that you're my girl, (do it) Don't I it loud baby Wanna tell the world That you did what you had to do An' every word you said to me was true You gave me what I asked for I can't ask for anymore than you I got everything a man could need Woah-oh, I feel just like a slave that has been freed I won't cry myself to sleep no more 'Cause I've found the love that I've been looking for Oh baby Now I don't have a problem 'Cause I know who I am You see I lost my only problem When you made me your man 'Cause you did what you had to do And every word you said to me was true You gave me what I asked for I can't ask for anymore than you No baby You gave me what I asked for An' I can't ask for anymore than you Wooh, wooh, ooh, ooh Wooh, wooh, ooh Can't ask for anymore than you, babe Can't ask for anymore than you Can't ask for anymore than you, babe Can't ask for anymore than you

As we eye the blue horizon's bend Earth and sky appear to meet and end But it's merely an illusion Like your heart and mine, there is no sweet conclusion I can see No matter how near you'll be You'll never belong to me But I can dream, can't I? Can't I pretend That I'm locked in the bend Of your embrace? For dreams are just like wine And I am drunk with mine I'm aware My heart is a sad affair There's much disillusion there But I can dream, can't I? Can't I adore you? Although we are oceans apart I can't make you open your heart But I can dream, can't I? Can't I pretend That I'm locked in the bend Of your embrace? For dreams are just like wine And I am drunk with mine I'm aware My heart is a sad affair There's much disillusion there But I can dream, can't I? Can't I adore you? Although we are oceans apart I can't make you open your heart But I can dream, can't I?
