It's Probably Me (Live at Polar Music Prize, Stockholm / 2017) - GREGORY PORTER

Since night turned cold and the stars looked down
And you hug yourself on the cold, cold ground
You wake the morning in a stranger's coat
No one would you see
You ask yourself, who'd watch for me
My only friend, who could it be
It's hard to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me
When your belly is empty, the hunger's so real
You're too proud to beg and too dumb to steal
You search the city for your only friend
No one would you see
You ask yourself who could it be?
A solitary voice speaking out and set me free
I hate to say it
I hate to say it, but it's probably me
You're not the easiest person I ever got to know
It's hard for us both to let our feelings show
Some would say I should let you go your way
You'll only make me cry
But if there's one guy, just one guy
Who would lay down his life for you and I
I had to say it
It's hard to say it, but it's probably me
Mm-hm
When the world's gone crazy, and it makes no sense
There's only one voice that comes to your defense
And the jury's out, and your eyes search the room
And the only friendly face is all you need to see
Oh, if there's just one guy, just one guy
Who would lay down his life for you and die
It's hard to say it
It's hard to say it, but it's probably me
Mm-hm
It's hard to say it
It's hard to say it, but it's probably me
It's hard to say it
It's hard to say it, but it's probably me
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, I would lay down my life
I would lay down my life for you
Oh, oh, oh, hey, hey
It's hard to say it
It's hard to say it
It's hard to say it
It's hard to say it
