Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Why not, why not?)
[Verse 2]
You act like you don't know me
When you see me on the street
Makin' like I turn you off
When I know you think I'm sweet
It don't have to be like that
I guess you're insecure
If you say what's on your mind
I might answer, "Sure"
[Verse 3]
So I walk a little slower
And I try to catch your eye
Sometimes it's so hard to see
The good things passing by
There may never be a sign
No flashing neon light
Tellin' you to make your move
Or when the time is right
[Verse 4]
(So)
Why not? (Why not?)
Take a crazy chance
Why not? (Why not?)
Do a crazy dance
If you lose the moment
You might lose a lot
So, why not? Why not?
[Verse 5]
Why not take a crazy chance?
(Why not take a crazy chance?)
[Verse 6]
You always dress in yellow
When you wanna dress in gold
Instead of listenin' to your heart
You do just what you're told
You keep waiting where you are
For what? You'll never know
Let's just get into your car
And go, baby, go
[Verse 7]
(So)
Why not? (Why not?)
Take a crazy chance
Why not? (Why not?)
Do a crazy dance
If you lose the moment
You might lose a lot
So, why not? Why not?
[Verse 8]
Oh, I could be the one for you
Oh, yeah, maybe yes, maybe no
Oh, it could be the thing to do
What I'm sayin' is you gotta let me know, oh-oh
[Verse 9]
You'll never get to heaven
Or even to L.A.
If you don't believe there's a way
[Verse 10]
Why not? (Why not?)
Take a star from the sky (Take a star from the sky)
Why not? (Why not?)
Spread your wings and fly? (Oh)
[Verse 11]
It might take a little
And it might take a lot
But why not? Why not?
[Verse 12]
Why not? (Take a crazy chance)
Take a crazy chance
Why not? (Do a crazy dance)
Do a crazy dance
If you lose the moment
You might lose a lot
So, why not? Why not?
