The Love You Can't Have

Lyrics

The Love You Can't Have It's 2 am and we're back in your kitchen I grab a beer and get ready to listen Here comes the part where you start your bitchin About him I sit across in my own private hell Keepin a secret I wish I could tell Seems so unfair though to think of myself When it's all about him, about him again And the love you can't have Is the one that you cry for Jump through hoops and swear you would die for You say that I wouldn't know what you're goin through But you're wrong- Coz the love that I can't have is you Just when I'm ready to say- I'm your man You look in my eyes and you reach for my hand You say you're so grateful that I understand About him, about him, about him again And the love you can't have is the one that you cry for Jump through hoops and swear you would die for You say that I wouldn't know what your goin through But you're wrong- coz the love that I can't have is you And the irony isn't wasted on me Every night's an eternity Waitin for you to get off of that fence And come to your senses and see The love you could have... You say that I wouldn't know what you're goin through But you're wrong, yes you're wrong, you're so wrong Coz the love that I can't have is you
