|
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 breakdowns come
|
And breakdowns go
|
So what are you going to do about 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 going to be
|
I'm going to 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
|
|
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 Senorita 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
|
