Dr. Hook Lyrics
"I Can't Touch The Sun For You"

I can't touch the clouds for you,
I never reached the sun for you.
I've never done the things that you need done for you.
I stretched out high as i can reach,
I guess im not the one for you.
Cause I can't touch the clouds or reach the sun for you
No i can't reach the clouds or touch the sun.

I can't turn back time for you,
and make your sweet 16 again.
I can't turn your barren fields to green again
And I won't sit around and talk of how things might have been again.

No i can't turn back time and make you young again.
I can't turn back time and make you young.

I hope you find somebody who can do the things i didn't do
and find the road i didnt find
and build a brighter world for u
I hope you find somebody bold enough to reach a take and roll
And guide your every change in mind
and free your ever rising soul
But i can't..
no
no i can't..

I can't look inside your mind
and see the things you're hoping for.
And i can't help you chase the dream you're groping for
You say your arms are open wide
but lord knows who they're open for.
No i can't know your mind or chase your dreams with you
i cant chase your dreams or know your mind
so say goodbye and dont look back.
I've had some happy days with you
sorry i cant be the one who stays with you
and when they ask about me,
you can say I was the one with you.
Who never touched the clouds or reached
the sun with you.

No i can't reach the clouds or touch the sun.
I guess its done
I can't touch the sun for you
i cant touch the sun
no i cant..
no i cant..
ohh no..
i cant touch the sun
no no no
uuu.. uu...
i can't..
