Lyrics
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 gonna do 'bout it? That's what I'd like to know"
You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could
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 gonna call the whole thing to a halt"
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 could)
You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could, ooh
(You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could)
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, señorita, that's astute," I said, "Why don't we get together
And call ourselves an institute?"
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 could)
You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could, ooh
(You don't feel you could love me, but I feel you could)
I was having this discussion in a taxi heading downtown
