Why can't I? Why can't I? Oh, why can't I? Why can't I try to save your life? Arm and a leg but I paid that price Time and again I replayed that night Better as friends no it ain't sound right Why can't I try to save your life? Arm and a leg but I paid that price Time and again I replayed that night Better as friends no it ain't sound right When the days go by When the sun don't shine When the rain drip drop and you stay so shy And when things get scary I could shield those eyes And I got a shoulder for you if you need one to cry I would fight anybody if they try to come for you I would wrap you in my arms and always comfort you I would save you from the world, keep my girl spoiled Cause you the girl from my dreams and that girl loyal But you prettier in person Neva' thought my dreams woulda seemed so certain But, you, you, you You right here wit' me Everywhere I go I got my right-hand wit' me Why can't I try to save your life? Arm and a leg but I paid that price Time and again I replayed that night Better as friends no it ain't sound right Why can't I try to save your life? Arm and a leg but I paid that price Time and again I replayed that night Better as friends no it ain't sound right
