LIZ PHAIR LYRICS
"Why Can't I?"
Get a load of me,
get a load of youWalkin' down the street,
and I hardly know youIt's just like we were meant to be.
Holding hands with you when we're out at night
Got a girlfriend,
you say it isn't rightAnd I've got someone waiting too.
What if this is just the beginningWe're already wet,
and we're gonna go swimming.
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Isn't this the best part of breakin' up
Finding someone else you can't get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too.
It's an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn't it be beautiful.
Here we go, we're at the beginning
We haven't started yet, but my heads spinning
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you.
High enough for you to make me wonder
Where it's goin'High enough for you to pull me under
Somethin's growin'out of this that we can controlBaby I am dyin'
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you.
