WHY CAN'T I?

[Verse 1]

Get a load of me, get a load of you

Walking down the street and I hardly know you (Hardly know you)

It's just like we were meant to be

Holding hands with you when we're out at night

You got a girlfriend, you say it isn't right (It isn't right)

And I've got someone waiting too

[Pre-Chorus]

What if this is just the beginning?

We're already wet and we're gonna go swimming

[Chorus]

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?

[Post-Chorus]

Whenever I think about you

Whenever I think about you

Whenever I think about you, yeah

[Verse 2]

Isn't this the best part of breaking up

Is finding someone else you can't get enough of

Someone who wants to be with you, too

It's an itch we know that we're gonna scratch

Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch, yeah

But wouldn't it be beautiful?

[Pre-Chorus]

Here we go, we're at the beginning

We haven't fucked yet, but my head's still spinning

[Chorus]

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?

[Bridge]

High enough for you to make me wonder (Where it's going)

High enough for you to pull me under (Something's growing)

Out of this that we can control

Baby, I am dyin'

[Pre-Chorus]

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you?

[Chorus]

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?

[Post-Chorus]

Whenever I think about you

Whenever I think about you

Whenever I think about you, yeah
