Why Can't I? by Liz Phair

Get a load of me, get a load of you
Walkin' down the street, and I hardly (1)________ you
It's just like we were meant to be
Holding hands (2)________ 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 (3)________ is just the beginning
We're already wet, and we're (4)__________ go swimming
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I (5)__________ whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable
It's a (6)________ that we're gonna get (7)________ to it
So tell me
Why can't I (8)______________ whenever I think about you...

Isn't this the best (9)________ of breakin' up
Finding someone else you can't get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too

Why can't I breathe (12)________________ I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I (13)________ (14)__________ you
It's inevitable
It's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I (15)______________ whenever I think about you
High enough for you to (16)________ 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 (17)______________ 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 (18)__________ whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable
It's a fact that we're gonna get (19)________ to it
So tell me
Why can't I (20)______________ (21)________________ I think about you
Whenever I think (22)__________ you
Whenever I think about you
Whenever I think about you
Whenever I (23)__________ about you...
