It Can't Be You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You smell just like childhood
Like running off the Hollywood
Time flies
Summer rays, gettin' burned
Gettin' layed for the first time
You were mine
Never wanted this to end
I don't know what else to do
I don't wanna love again
Now I know what there’s to lose
Said forever on a whim
Should've known it wasn't true
I don't wanna love again
If it can't be, it can't be you, ooh-ooh
It can't be you, ooh-ooh
Jealous heart in sweaty hands
Springtime in Manhattan went so fast
It can't get back
Knew each other so very wеll
Don't wanna learn nobody else
Know mе better, then I knew myself
Never wanted this to end
I don't know what else to do
I don't wanna love again
Now I know what there’s to lose
Said forever on a whim
Should've known it wasn't true
I don't wanna love again
If it can't be, it can't be you, ohh-ohh
It can't be you, ooh-ooh
Who else knows the inner workings of my mind
The end of all my stories, I
Need to be alone sometimes
Pull my hair before I cry
Careful with these memories
Careful or they'll bury me
If I could go back, then I won't
Never wanted this to end
I don't know what else to do
I don't wanna love again
Now I know what there’s to lose
Said forever on a whim
Should've known it wasn't true
I don't wanna love again
If it can't be, it can't be you, ooh-ooh
It can't be you, ooh-ooh
It can't be you, ooh-ooh (I break up, in love again, I break up, in love again)
It can't be you, ooh-ooh (I break up, in love again, I break up, in love again)
It can't be you, ooh-ooh (I break up, in love again, I break up, in love again)
It can't be you, ooh-ooh
