Lyrics of
Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own

Sometimes You Can’t Make It on Your Own by U2 is a tribute from Bono to his father, Bob Hewson, who passed away in 2001. Bono described the song as the toughest conversation between a father and a son, and it expresses love and acknowledgment for the impact his father had on his life.

Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough
You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
Refrão
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
Refrão
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
(Just inside)
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can, you, hear, me, when, I, sing
You're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me
Well hey now
Still got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
