Текст песни Constant State Of Want (Christine Lavin) с переводом

I never thought I’d give up on you

But sometimes you’ve got to do

What you’ve got to do

We’ve been engaged in a tug of war

I don’t want to play this game anymore

You act content with the status quo

I think any second everything will blow

You seem so blissfully unaware

Of building friction in the air

I’m living in a constant state of want

I’m always wanting more than you will give

You’re living in a constant state of pulling away from me

This is no way to live

Our friends think we have got it made

Our plate is full our dues are paid

They see no straining at the seams

We’ve learned to live within our means

But if they spied on us at night

Oh no they would not hear us fight

But they’d feel the tension in the air

That you’re pretending is not there

I’m living in a constant state of want

I’m always wanting more than you will give

You’re living in a constant state of pulling away from me

This is no way to live

No way to live for two people

Who started out with the best of intentions

No way to live you fight for privacy

I fight for your attention

I’d rather live all by myself

Than freefall down this burning well

You tell me everything is okay

I look in your eyes you look away

You are content with the status quo

I know any second everything will blow

I find it impossible now to bear

A love that’s turned into despair

I’m living in a constant state of want

I’m always wanting more than you can give

You’re living in a constant state of pulling away from me

This is no way to live
