I dreamed about a daring getaway,
Every night under her window,
Where I would just steal her away
And she would just go
And we would open-top cross-country
And I'd provide for everything,
And she would soon forget about you
And how you smothered her under your wing

You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her,
You say that you'll never love her,
You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her

You just can't

I see the way she stares out into space
And I wonder what she's thinking
And what she can't see in your face
Or what anyone sees
If I could only take that chance
Then I know I can make her see
And she would soon forget about you
And start discovering me

You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her,
You say that you'll never love her,
You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her

You just can't

These promises are,
Are just good enough
To make it all better
To make it all better
These promises are,
Are just good enough
To make it all better
To make it all better

You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her,
You say that you'll never love her,
You say that you'll never love her
You say that you'll never love her

You just can't
