Why Can't We Be Lovers lyrics

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Sometimes I feel like

there's no use in trying.

Why can't I face the fact

we've lost what we'll never get back?

I don't know where,

where did we go wrong?

I say I'm leaving, but

my feelings are too strong.

And, baby, you know, I'm in love, baby,

so in love with you, darling.

And when I say I'm leaving,

boy, it's just I'm make-believing.

I ain't going nowhere.

No, I ain't going nowhere.

Boy, you're a

habit I can't break.

I'd fall apart if you

weren't there when I awake.

I've thought of leaving,

but I don't have the heart.

I can't picture it, babe,

you and I being apart.

And if I say goodbye,

it doesn't mean I'm going,

and if I say there ain't no love,

you might still see it showing.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

'Cause I'm in love

(I'm in love)

so in love

(so in love)

and I'll never be leaving,

boy, it's just I'm make-believing.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

And if I say goodbye,

doesn't mean I'm going,

and if I say there ain't no love,

you might still see it showing.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

'Cause I'm in love,

so in love,

and I'll never be leaving,

boy, it's just I'm make-believing.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

Baby

Why can't we be lovers?

Oh, darling, from loving you

I'll never recover.

'Cause I'm in love, 

so in love

And I'll never be leaving

it's just make-believing.
