Why can't i

Get a load of me, get a load of you
Walkin´ down the street, and I hardly know you
It´s just like we were meant to be
Holding hands with you when we´re out at night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn´t right
And I´ve got someone waiting too
What if this is just the beginning
We´re already wet, and we´re gonna go swimming
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
It´s inevitable, it´s a fact that we´re gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Isn´t this the best part of breakin´ up
Finding someone else you can´t get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too
It´s an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn´t it be beautiful
Here we go, we´re at the beginning
We haven´t fucked yet, but my heads spinning
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
It´s inevitable, it´s a fact that we´re gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
High enough for you to make me wonder
Where it´s goin´
High enough for you to pull me under
Somethin´s growin´
out of this that we can control
Baby I am dyin´
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
It´s inevitable, it´s a fact that we´re gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Walkin´ down the street, and I hardly know you
It´s just like we were meant to be
Holding hands with you when we´re out at night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn´t right
And I´ve got someone waiting too
What if this is just the beginning
We´re already wet, and we´re gonna go swimming
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
It´s inevitable, it´s a fact that we´re gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Isn´t this the best part of breakin´ up
Finding someone else you can´t get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too
It´s an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn´t it be beautiful
Here we go, we´re at the beginning
We haven´t fucked yet, but my heads spinning
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
It´s inevitable, it´s a fact that we´re gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
High enough for you to make me wonder
Where it´s goin´
High enough for you to pull me under

Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can´t I speak whenever I talk about you
It´s inevitable, it´s a fact that we´re gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can´t I breathe whenever I think about you
