I Could Not
[Verse 1]
I thought I'd grow a crop
In the, in the desert sand
I thought I could make it green
Til’ the harvest, with everyone
But I could not
[Verse 2]
I thought I'd build a mansion on the hill
Thought I'd build a road-straight entry
Thought it would it get me next to you
But I, I could not
[Chorus]
No, I could not
No, I could not
No, I, I could not
No, I, I could not
[Verse 3]
I thought I could feel the touch of our fathers
And understand the words in the book of love
Thought I could sing a song for every man
But I, I, I could not
[Chorus]
No, I could not
No, I could not
No, I, I could not
No, I, I could not
[Verse 4]
And I thought I’d grow a crop
In the desert sand
And share the harvest with everyone
Mmm, But I, I could not
No, I could not
No, I could not
No, I could not
[Outro]
No, I, I could not
No, I, I could not
