Gumboots Songtext
von Simon Paul

I was having this discussion
In a taxi heading downtown
Rearranging my position
On this friend of mine who had
A little bit of a breakdown
I said "Hey, you know breakdowns come
And breakdowns go
So, what are you going to do about it?
That′s what I'd like to know"

You don′t feel you could love me
But I feel you could


It was in the early morning hours
When I fell into a phone call
Believing I had supernatural powers
I slammed into a brick wall
I said "Hey, is this my problem?"
I said "Hey, is this my fault?"
Well, that's the way it's going to be
I′m going to call the whole thing to a halt

You don′t feel you could love me
But I feel you could
You don't feel you could love me
But I feel you could

I was walking down the street
When I thought I heard this voice say
Say, "Ain′t we walking down the same street together
On the very same day"
And I said "Hey senorita"
I said "That's astute"
I said "Why don′t we get together
And call ourselves an institute?"

You don't feel you could love me
But I feel you could
You don′t feel you could love me
But I feel you could, yeah
