You know how to make me worry
And you love that I do it so well
You've always been in a hurry
To bring me down to your room now

And I don't know why I keep trying and trying again
'Cause I know now I'm never really gonna win

My love can't rescue you
Can't make your mountains move
Won't make your desert bloom the way you want it to
My love can't heal the scars
You've carved in your own heart
My love can't rescue you the way you want it to
Not the way you want it to

You drew me up to your tower
Lured by the fame of your spell
A hero's kiss with no power
I tried to bring you back to life and failed

And I don't know why I keep trying and trying again
Oh, I know now I'm, I'm never gonna win

My love can't rescue you
Can't make the mountains move
Won't make your desert bloom the way you want it to
My love can't heal the scars
You carved on your own heart
My love can't rescue you the way you want it to
Not the way you want it to

I've given you a life line, giving you time
Oh, but you'd rather sink than swim
You blame history, you're blaming me
But you are your own worst enemy

And I don't know why I keep trying again
I know now I, I'm never gonna win

My love can't rescue you
Can't make the mountains move
Won't make your desert bloom the way you want it to
And my love can't heal the scars
That you've carved in your own heart
My love can't rescue you the way you want it to
Not the way you want it to
Oh not the way I, I want it to
