Why Can't I Be with You Songtext
von No Devotion

You′re a fire and you're careless
You keep burning down our dreams
I′m a shadow, running blind
I can feel you in the heat

To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river

And the night is a coffee cup
Dark licorice line
That's been wired to the street
I can feel it in my teeth

To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river


From the rivers and the reeds and the burning water
Past the nightmare streets and forgetten borders
With the whispers and the waves and the silent offers
I've been there

So why can′t I be with you?
So why can′t I be with you?
So why can't I be with you?
So why can′t I be with you?
So why can't I be with you?

You′re a fire and you're careless
You keep burning down our dreams
I′m a shadow, running blind
I can feel you in the heat

To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river
To the river, run me to the river

From the rhythm and the rage and the lonely corners
Past the blinding scenes that were falling forwards
Past the shivers and the shakes where the fever breaks
I've been there


So why can't I be with you?
So why can′t I be with you?
So why can′t I be with you?
So why can't I be with you?
So why can′t I be with you?
