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
