Lyrics
You Can't - © 2018 Terry Sorfleet
Verse 1
I'm angry, hurt and seething
'cause you tell me that you're leaving
But you'd better start believing
You Can't
You say I give you no rights
and you're tired of verbal fist fights
So you tell me that I'm tail lights
You Can't, Can't, Can't
Chorus A
Does my wedding ring mean nothing
How dare you try to break my heart
Those vows we made should last forever
So be warned, I can't let us part........ No Way
Verse 2
You say I'm like a coiled spring
And you find me disturbing
So you're leaving in the morning
You Can't
You say I'm too possessive
You call me a depressive
And you say I'm too aggressive
You Can't, Can't, Can't
Chorus A
Bridge
You'd gone to pieces when I met you
Like a book without a spine
I put you back together
Saved you from the bread line
That's why I own you
Think it's not true?
Just try to leave,
and it's the last thing, you'll do You Can't
Chorus B
Does my wedding ring mean nothing
How dare you try to break my heart
Those vows we made should last forever
OR AT LEAST, 'TILL DEATH US DO PART
Outro
You Can't, You'll Regret it
You Can't, So forget it,
You Can't, or you'll Get It.................
