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.
Don't ask me where I have been
No I can't, no I can't let you in
No, don't tell me you've changed since then
If you've been bad before, you'll be bad again
But then I feel the pressure whenever you're close to me
You're drawing letters on me with your fingertips
I want to let ya, but I know what that does to me
I gotta make it stop
Say ooh, can't let you break the rules
It can't be you, ooh
I'll find somebody new
It can't be you, but ooh
I miss the way you move
No one knows me like you
Though I hate it, it's the truth
It can't be you
It can't be you
It can't be you
It can't be you
It can't be you
Don't bring up your family now
Say they ask about me, I should go round
I shoulda told them all about what you've done
Why would I believe that you're still in love?
But then I feel the pressure whenever you're close to me
You're drawing letters on me with your fingertips
I want to let ya, but I know what that does to me
I gotta make it stop
Say ooh, can't let you break the rules
It can't be you, ooh
I'll find somebody new
It can't be you, but ooh
I miss the way you move
No one knows me like you
Though I hate it, it's the truth
It can't be you
It can't be you
It can't be you
It can't be you
It can't be you
