lyrics

Why I Can’t

This song is all about you
And why I can't
I can't write about you anymore
It's turning me blue
Sweet baby
I can't write about you anymore.

You're asking me why
And I'm searching
You're tearing me down
And I'm reaching
And I'm so tired
Sweet baby
I can't write about you anymore.

My soul is spilling over
And I'm aching
And your sweet words
They leave me quaking
And I'm left with this feeling
Baby
I can't write about you anymore.

You’re driving me crazy You’re turning me inside out
You’ve got my head spinning
You’ve got me living in the clouds

And I still wanna try
To find you
And I still want
To love you
But I know I can't
Sweet baby
I can't write about you anymore

You’re driving me crazy
You’re turning me inside out
You’ve got my head spinning
You’ve got me living in the clouds

This song is all about you
And why I can't
I can't live without you anymore
It's turning me blue
Sweet baby
I can't live without you anymore.
