|
He takes me to the places you and I used to go
|
He tells me over and over that he loves me so
|
He gives me love that I never got from you
|
He loves me too, his love is true
|
Why can't he be you
|
|
He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind
|
And I'm lucky to have such a guy; I hear it all the time
|
And he does all the things that you would never do
|
He loves me, too, his love is true
|
Why can't he be you
|
|
He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul
|
And I should love him so, 'cause he loves me, I know
|
But his kisses leave me cold
|
|
He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love
|
And my friends say when he's around, I'm all he speaks of
|
And he does all the things that you would never do
|
He loves me too, his love is true
|
Why can't he be you
