Lyrics Collective Soul – Memoirs Of 2005

Why can’t I have you
Are you too far away
Is it the distance I keep
Or the words I don’t say

All these days I’ve run like a devil gone wild
Only to end helpless like a newborn child

Chorus:
Why can’t I have you tonight
Why can’t I have you tonight
Why can’t I have you?

Why can’t I have you
Now the day has drawn
Is it the love you require
Or the love I have shown

All these nights I’m freed beneath the light of the moon
Just to be held hostage with the thoughts of you

Chorus

I talk aloud in this empty room
I’m lost but found when it comes to you

Chorus

Why can’t I have you?

Why can’t I have you?
