On My Shoulders - The Dø

Why would I carry such a weight on my shoulders

Why do I always help you carry your boulders

You wonder why I carry such a weight on my shoulders

And why would I tttts such a load

Cos someday you'll see

Next time I'll try it another way

Why would you try to make me friends with them soldiers

When you know that I've never been familiar with orders

When you know that my heart is in a pretty disorder

And you should know that in my heart you fill every corner

And someday you'll see that all I want is to please

Next time I'll try it another way

How long will I sit and wait like a soldier

How many summers will it take

How many summers will I wait

How many shoulders will I break

Why would I carry such a weight on my shoulders

Why am I always by your side when you're down

Why did I help you build a beautiful house

And why did I break my back for you in the cold

Cos someday you'll see

Next time I'll try it another way

Why would I have to quit if time makes me older

Why do they wonder why I never get bored

How could I tell them that I'll never let go

But hey you're my man but they just won't understand

And someday you'll see that all I want is to please

Next time I'll try it another way

How long will I sit and wait like a soldier

How many summers will it take

How many summers will I wait

How many shoulders will I break

Why would I carry such a weight on my shoulders

Why do I always help you carry your boulders

You wonder why I carry such a weight on my shoulders

And why would I tttts such a load

And someday you'll see that all I want is to please

Next time I'll try it another way

How long will I sit and wait like a soldier

How many summers will it take

How many summers will I wait

How many summers will I wait
