SEEMS LIKE I CAN'T LIVE WITH YOU (BUT I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU)
(Burton Cummings / Domenic Troiano)


The Guess Who - 1974

Seems like I can't live with you
But I can't live without you
I know that time will never change you
So there's just no sense in living anymore

Remember at the start we had the world by the tail
Seems like nothing we two could try just ever could fail
Then the lovin' slipped away, you stood by and you just let it
Someday I know that you'll regret it
When they send that pain on back to you

Seems like I can't live with you
But I can't go on without you
I know that time will never change you
So there's just no sense in living anymore

Well, baby, it looks like the lovin' fires have burned cold
And all I've got now are some ashes that were left behind
You know, I gave you everything I had, love
And I guess it's 'cause your kisses just made me so blind

'Cause then the magic disappeared
You stood by and you just let it
Someday I know that you'll regret it
When someone else goes and steps all over you

Seems like I can't live with you
But I can't live without you
I know that time will never change you
So there's just no sense in living anymore
