Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Can't wait for night to come
That's when they fun really begins
My band cools off when that days is done
And then I tuck myself in
[Verse 2]
It ain't no fun to be alone, yeah
But I was not too lonely
And I begin to realize that
I can't have everything, everything
Why can't I?
[Verse 3]
Let's go make memories
Precious and temporary
Of all the people I meet
I wanna take y'all with me
[Verse 4]
It ain't no fun to be alone, well
But I was not too lonely
And I begin to realize that
I can't have everything, everything
Oh, why can't I?
[Verse 5]
Jesus is waiting on me
Just as He always does
Something will be comin' up
Just like it always does
[Verse 6]
It ain't no fun to be alone, yeah
But I was not so lonely
And I'm beginning to realize it
I can't have everything, everything
Why can't I?
Why can't I?
Or do I?
Do I?
Ooh, do I?
Why can't I?
Oh, do I?
