Can't Take It Lyrics
You speak to me
I know this will be temporary
You ask to leave
But I can tell you that
I've had enough
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
Step up to me
I know that you've got something buried
I'll set you free
You set conditions but
I've had enough
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
Come back home
Won't you come back home
You step in line you've got a lot to prove
It comes and goes
Yeah it comes and goes
A step in time yeah it's a lot to move
Know this will temporary
I know this will be temporary
I know this will be but
I've had enough
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
I know this will be temporary
You ask to leave
But I can tell you that
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
I know that you've got something buried
I'll set you free
You set conditions but
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
Won't you come back home
You step in line you've got a lot to prove
It comes and goes
Yeah it comes and goes
A step in time yeah it's a lot to move
Know this will temporary
I know this will be temporary
I know this will be but
I can't take it
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone
This welcome is gone
And I've waited long enough
To make it
And if you're so strong
You might as well just do it alone
And I want you gone

Best song on the cd.
I think this is about a relationship gone bad, or a guy tormented by a girl that he nevertheless is still attracted to... and even though she pisses him off or fucks him over, he can't permanantly get rid of her. Which is the reason for the line "I know this will be temporary".
whoa...so good! sooo good! i'm stuck on this track.
fab song...really fun to sing along to too. I play it so loud on my stereo that my walls shake and when i play it on my computer...well....lets just say I had to get new speakers...
OMG! i love this song so much... it reminds me of some of my friendships, and ugh... its just such a good song... one of my favorites! i really love the whole Move Along CD!
I always got the impression he's with a girl who has massive mood swings mayeb on like a monthly bases maybe on a day to day basis. The point it, sometimes she's up and sometimes she very down. and he's simply had enough of it. "I've waited long enough To make it" even though he knows none of the moods last forever "I know this will be temporary" "It comes and goes Yeah it comes and goes" And in spite of wantng her to go or him wnating to leave her, he tsill wants her and wants to help her "I know that you've got something buried" "Come back home Won't you come back home"
About him loving this person so much and the other person always does something to mess up the realtionship. somehow everytime this happens he forgives her becuase he loves her. Everytime she leaves he wants her back even though she messes everything up.
