lyrics

verse 1:

Oh there was a time when you would speak
My knees would go and I’d be weak.
Then you met someone new
and I had to find someway through.
Oh why can’t you be mine ?

verse 2:

Don’t think that I’m ignoring you.
It’s the best that I can do to keep from
leaping in your arms right now or
go outside and scream and howl
Oh why can’t you be mine ?

Chorus 1:

Oh I had to walk away
even though my heart willed me to stay
Oh why can’t you be mine ?

Why can’t you be mine ?

verse 3:

I’ll take your love but not heartache.
I’d even go so far to break
my promises to myself be true.
Oh I’d over throw myself for you
Why can’t you be mine ?

Chorus 2:

But I had to walk away
even though my heart tempted “take me anyway”
Why can’t you be mine ?
