Story behind the song
So many songs about breaking up, or being "perfectly" in love. Few about being satisfied but knowing it could be better (if only we were better ourselves).
Lyrics
The Frustration of Us Fell in love with her smile Her laugh, her heart, her soul Fell in love with her frailty Her strength, her poise, her pain And she gave almost all of it to me Almost willingly And she asked almost nothing of me Almost willingly (Chorus) The frustration of us is not where we have been The frustration of us is not where we are The frustration of us is knowing what we might have been If only I, if only I, if only I could have been a better man Fell in love with my passion My depth, my words, my mind Fell in love with my gentleness My songs, my laugh, my pain And I gave almost none of it to her Almost willingly And I asked almost everything of her Almost willingly (Chorus) (Bridge) Shouldn’t she be leaving me by now Shouldn’t she be frustrated somehow Shouldn’t she be leaving me by now Shouldn’t she want more from me somehow And she gives almost all of it to me Almost willingly And she asks almost nothing of me Almost willingly (Chorus)
