It Dont Bring You Lyrics

Artist: Mary Chapin Carpenter

(Mary Chapin Carpenter)

Well I know it aint been roses lately
Baby its just been thorns
And no matter what we do
Nothing seems to change
Love has always been my shelter
For you its been a storm
But for a while I thought
Wed almost beat the rain

Now theres a hole here in my pocket
Where all my dreams have gone
Falling out like so many nickels and dimes
And last of all you
Youd always been my good luck charm
I shouldve known that luck
It was a waste of time

Cause it dont bring you love if you dont love
And it dont bring you time if you aint got time
And it dont bring you strength baby if you aint strong
And it dont bring you kindness if you aint kind

Now theres a whole lot in life to be unsure of
But theres one thing I can safely say I know
That of all the things that finally desert us
Pride is always the last thing to go

But it dont bring you love if you dont love
And it dont bring you time if you aint got time
And it dont bring you strength baby if you aint strong
And it dont bring you kindness if you aint kind

And now I wish you only roses without the thorns
And I hope your dreams are always within reach
And I wish you shelter baby from all your storms
They scared you but they never seemed to teach

That I cant bring you love if you dont love
And I cant bring you time if you aint got time
And I cant bring you strength baby if you aint strong
And I cant bring you kindness if you aint kind
And I cant bring you kindness if you aint kind
