Shel Silverstein - I Can't Touch The Sun

Shel Silverstein

I Can't Touch The Sun

No I can't touch the clouds for you I've never reached the sun for you
I've never done the things that you need done for you
I've stretched as high as I can reach I guess I'm 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

No I can't turn back time for you and make you sweet sixteen again
I can't turn your barren fields to green again
And I can't sit around and talk of how 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 can't look inside your mind and see the things you're hopin' for
I can't help you chase the dream you're gropin' for
I know your heart is open wide but I don't know who it's open for
Cause I can't know your mind or chase your dreams for you
Mhm I can't chase your dreams or know your mind

So say goodbye and don't look back I've had some happy days with you
I'm sorry but I can't be the one who stays with you
And if they ask about me you can say I was the one with you
Who never touched the clouds or reached the sun with you
I can't touch the clouds or reach the sun for you
I can't touch the clouds or reach the sun

Mirror lyrics:

I can't touch the clouds or reach the sun
I can't touch the clouds or reach the sun for you
Who never touched the clouds or reached the sun with you
And if they ask about me you can say I was the one with you
I'm sorry but I can't be the one who stays with you
So say goodbye and don't look back I've had some happy days with you

Mhm I can't chase your dreams or know your mind
Cause I can't know your mind or chase your dreams for you
I know your heart is open wide but I don't know who it's open for
I can't help you chase the dream you're gropin' for
I can't look inside your mind and see the things you're hopin' for

I can't turn back time and make you young
No I can't turn back time and make you young again
And I can't sit around and talk of how might have been again
I can't turn your barren fields to green again
No I can't turn back time for you and make you sweet sixteen again

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