Gumboots

[Verse 1]

I was having this discussion in a taxi heading downtown

Rearranging my position on this friend of mine who had a little bit of a breakdown

I said, "Hey, you know, breakdowns come and breakdowns go, so

What are you going to do about it? That's what I'd like to know"

[Chorus]

You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could

[Verse 2]

It was in the early morning hours when I fell into a phone call

Believing I had supernatural powers, I slammed into a brick wall

I said, "Hey, is this my problem? Is this my fault?

If that's the way it's gonna be I'm going to call the whole thing to a halt" and

[Chorus]

You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could

(You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you)

You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could, oohh

(You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you)

[Verse 3]

I was walking down the street when I thought I heard this voice say

"Say, ain't we walking down the same street together on the very same day?"

I said, "Hey, senorita, that's astute," I said

"Why don't we get together and call ourselves an institute?"

[Chorus]

You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could

(You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you)

You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could, oohh

(You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you)
