Why Can’t We?

I know I said we wouldn't do this

But I can't help the way I feel

And, yeah, your ego's gotten too big

For you to tell me this is real

So when I'm all up in my feelings, feelin' blue (I want ya)

When you're down and out and don't know what to do (I got ya)

So let's take a little minute, me and you

'Cause you love the way this feels, and that's the truth

Why can't you just love me right?

Why can't we spend the night?

Why can't you just treat me right?

Why can't we just be in love?

You got me swimmin' in your ocean

You got me fallin' way too deep

So now I'm drownin' in emotions

You got me fallin' at your feet

So when I'm all up in my feelings, feelin' blue (I want ya)

When you're down and out and don't know what to do (I got ya)

So let's take a little minute, me and you

'Cause you love the way this feels, and that's the truth

Why can't you just love me right?

Why can't we spend the night?

Why can't you just treat me right?

Why can't we just be in love?

I tried to make you listen 'bout a thousand times

How you getting caught up leavin' me behind?

I can cross your T's and you can dot my I's

Don't ya leave, don't ya leave me

I tried to make you listen 'bout a thousand times

How you getting caught up leavin' me behind?

I can cross your t's and you can dot my i's

Don't ya leave, don't ya leave, I mean it

Why can't you just love me right?

Why can't we spend the night?

Why can't you just treat me right?

Why can't we just be in love?
