    Lyrics:
    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
    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
    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
    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 meâ
    Where are we now?
    I've 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
    The best you can do is to fake it
    Sometimes you can't make it on your own

    I came here today, after reading the chapter in Bono's book: Surrender, in which he talks about the elationship with his father and the creation of this song. I was so moved by this chapter. I had to put the book down.
    My father died when I was 13 years old, after a long struggle which he had with cancer. The house was no longer a home. It became empty. I missed him so much and the only place I had to run to was music. Music helped me to deal with the grief.
    My oldest brother bought me a DVD of U2's show in Chicago (The Elevation Tour). I would put on that DVD and just shower myself with the music and shower my emotions with the music. I felt hurt and sad. I felt lonely. But the music was always there.
    Thank you Bono for sharing a beautiful creation which came out of your grief, with us. Your band will always be my number one. Thank you. Mark

    I just left my dad in the hospital for what will be the last time to see him. We don’t live in the same state, so we talk every day; who am I gonna call now? It’s so hard to know that I won’t ever see him alive again. I found this song to be calming as well delivering a message that resonates with my heart. I’m determined to get him to hear it before he passes. Perhaps it will help me say things I could not say when I was there by his side. The artists of U2 are truly a Devine talent to be able to create such emotional provoking art. My heart is swelled with love to be able to lean on such great emotional support music in time of pain.

    This song is so beautiful and sad at the same to me. When I was young, my mother always would say a prayer that she live to see her children grown and to give our dad strength if and when she would pass away ( battled cancer twice). Sadly our dad died of a massive heart attack at age 49yrs old we where all devastated. Happened to watching t.v. and Bono/u2 was singing this. Made me think about my dad. Five years later our mother died at 55yrs old of colon cancer and heartache from missing our dad. Years later, now Iam older, and I remember praying that prayer of seeing my children grown. My youngest who is 23 yrs old and she lives at home with me, they lost their dad in 2018, so I am the only parent they have. I hope and pray she oneday can make it on her own. And when it's oneday Iam gone they will remember my love and care, and how I tried prepare them for life. Love mom💘

    One of my all-time favorite songs. Knowing that it was written for Bono's father even makes it more beautiful.
    When this album was released, I was going through hard times myself. I took most lyrics very personally. In the end I realised that sometimes I can't make it on my own. With help I got back on my feet. Thanks to U2 for being the soundtrack of my life.

    My daughter stopped talking to me 2 years ago, and proceeded to tell me how crap i was, when i thought id done everything right. Been the dad that i always wanted myself growing up. Reading bed time stories, doing homework with her, fun dad, protective, maybe too protective. There was just one problem. I was an alcoholic. I had been since she was born. And although i tried to hide it, and did so, well initially, it slowly took over and as she got older, she realised more and more. It will be 2 years on october the 14th the last time we spoke. I hope one day she can realise that i was very unwell, and we can rebuild what we had. As i write this, ive been sober 6 weeks today. I never thought i would see myself write them words after 20 years of addiction. This song reminds me of her. Peace and love to you all wherever you are.

    None of us are ever really on our own, should we care to realize this or not. Carrying loved ones within our hearts is only troublesome when betrayal is the reason that once set us apart. Loved ones who once gave us our voice in life should never be left behind.

    Dang. This song always moved me in a big way. And now my own father is very ill. Never imagined this song could move me any more than it originally did, but this time it put my soul in a new dimension. And I see in the previous comments it obviously moved many a person. I'm always so grateful when artists can put into words and music and harmony, the feelings that the rest of us wish we could form into sentences and communicate. I don't have that skill, but grateful others do. It brings people together, knowing that some truths and experiences are universal. We're all so alike in how we feel.

    Perdi o meu pai em 2010. Lutava contra uma bactéria que tinha apanhado no hospital depois de alguns problemas de saúde que o debilitaram imenso. Quando falei com ele, estava todo contente porque ia ter alta do hospital e estava melhor. Isto no 31 de outubro. Ele faleceu de manhã, no dia 1 de novembro, lembro de ter recebido um telefonema do hospital por volta das 10h da manhã. Foi uma experiência que fica gravada para sempre.
    Em 2017 perco a minha mãe em 15 dias devido a leucemia que atacou de forma rápida.
    Recordo-os com muito carinho por aquilo que me ensinaram e que me ajudaram a ser a pessoa que sou.

    I don’t know if he’s alive or gone, he left me half of my life now.
    If he didn’t know things could get that bad.
    Just to abandon everything.
    One thing I have learned is not to be selfish
    Nurture the young
    Create security
    Make everyday purposeful
    Give them the strength yourself has endured
    As one day they will have to make it on their own.

    I can relate in so many ways. Sucks when you have a parent who’s so dysfunctional and yet you love them but know that the relationship will always be that way. Time is a great healer but will never truly heal that person so the cycle continues on even if you feel like you’re in a good place with them. Yet you still love them no matter what. A very difficult situation for sure.
