How Can You Really?

In the morning when they found us
And we woke up in the coconut wind
How you took my hand and told me
All the stories of the places you'd been
And how you thought that I could make it
How you were the one for me
How can you really love someone who can't love you?
How can you love someone you can't leave?
It's my fault, it's your fault too
How 'bout you go and find somebody who can love you
When I wake up in the morning
How I long to tell you all of my dreams
But how I've learned not to care
If you're not the star of that scene, so it seems
And how can you treat me so badly?
If you love me don't treat me so mean
'Cause I am done politely asking
Can't you see all the pain that I'm in?
It's getting pretty hard to make it
That's all the time for me
And for you
How can you really love someone who can't love you?
How can you love someone you can't leave?
It's my fault, it's your fault too
How 'bout you go and find somebody who can love you
How can you really love someone who can't love you?
How can you love someone you can't leave?
It's my fault, it's your fault too
How 'bout you go and find somebody new
How can you really love someone who can't love you?
How can you love someone you can't leave?
It's my fault, it's your fault too
How 'bout you go and find somebody who can love you
How can you really love someone who can't love you?
How can you love someone you can't leave?
It's my fault, it's your fault too...
