Ode to Alex lyrics

I can’t make you happy But I can make you cry You sure as hell can’t complete me So don’t even try Seeing you there on there floor that day Against the white walls and the plastic chairs I realised that all I can do is play these keys And hope they convey my gratitude For all that you gave And all that you gave up For all that you gave And all that you gave up Baby Alex one day you’ll see That life existed before you and me I can’t wait to watch you grow day by day And show us what it is you came here to change But you can’t make them stay together You can’t make love last forever Know that all you can do in this life Is be passionate and true And use all that you’re given And all that they gave up for you Use all that you’re given And all that they gave up for you To be passionate and true To be passionate and true That’s all you can do
