WHY CAN'T I HOLD YOU
IN THE STREET
WHY CAN'T I KISS YOU
ON THE DANCE FLOOR
I WISH THAT IT COULD
BE LIKE THAT
WHY CAN'T IT
BE LIKE THAT
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
WE KEEP BEHIND
CLOSED DOORS
EVERY TIME I SEE YOU
I DIE A LITTLE MORE
STOLEN MOMENTS
THAT WE STEAL
AS THE CURTAIN FALLS
IT'LL NEVER BE
ENOUGH
AS YOU DRIVE ME
TO MY HOUSE
I CAN'T STOP
THESE SILENT TEARS
FROM ROLLING DOWN
YOU AND I BOTH
HAVE TO HIDE
ON THE OUTSIDE
WHERE I CAN'T BE YOURS
AND YOU
CAN'T BE MINE
BUT I KNOW THIS
WE GOT A LOVE
THAT IS HOPELESS
WHY CAN'T I HOLD YOU
IN THE STREET
WHY CAN'T I KISS YOU
ON THE DANCE FLOOR
I WISH THAT IT COULD
BE LIKE THAT
WHY CAN'T IT
BE LIKE THAT
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
WHEN YOU'RE WITH HIM
DO YOU CALL HIS NAME
LIKE YOU DO WHEN
YOU'RE WITH ME
DOES IT FEEL THE SAME
WOULD YOU LEAVE
IF I WAS READY
TO SETTLE DOWN
OR WOULD
YOU PLAY IT SAFE
AND STAY
GIRL YOU KNOW THIS
WE GOT A LOVE
THAT IS HOPELESS
WHY CAN'T
YOU HOLD ME
IN THE STREET
WHY CAN'T I KISS YOU
ON THE DANCE FLOOR
I WISH THAT IT COULD
BE LIKE THAT
WHY CAN'T WE
BE LIKE THAT
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
AND NOBODY KNOWS
I'M IN LOVE WITH
SOMEONE'S BABY
I DON'T WANNA
HIDE US AWAY
TELL THE WORLD ABOUT
THE LOVE WE'RE MAKING
AND I'M LIVING FOR
THAT DAY
SOMEDAY
WHY CAN'T I HOLD YOU
IN THE STREET
WHY CAN'T I KISS YOU
ON THE DANCE FLOOR
I WISH THAT WE COULD
BE LIKE THAT
WHY CAN'T WE BE
LIKE THAT
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
I'M YOURS
OH WHY CAN'T YOU
HOLD ME IN THE STREET
HOLD ME IN THE STREET
WHY CAN'T YOU KISS ME
KISS YOU
ON THE DANCE FLOOR
I WISH THAT IT COULD
BE LIKE THAT OH YEAH
WHY CAN'T IT BE LIKE THAT
OH YEAH
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
WHY CAN'T I SAY THAT
I'M IN LOVE
I WANNA SHOUT IT
FROM THE ROOFTOPS
I WISH THAT IT COULD
BE LIKE THAT
OH YEAH
WHY CAN'T IT
BE LIKE THAT
'CAUSE I'M YOURS
WHY CAN'T WE
BE LIKE THAT
WISH WE COULD BE LIKE
THAT
