The dance) Why can't you take me in your arms now? I guess we'll be friends...We are not
Inside my mouth I can hear all the voices say, "Do not lean over the ledge" I shouldn't look down and I shouldn't have found That your lips I still taste in my head
Raising my glass to the head of the class As she powers out steps one through ten I think I'll be fine if I'm covered in wine I still hate you and love you again
And see you again And see you again
Weary and worn Little monster is born Tell me lies and I'll justify them I'm desperate today and it's making me pay For that night, for that kiss, for your bed
Whoever dared to love someone not there I don't need a balloon and a pin The name of the game is outrunning the blame So I hate and love you We're friends
Guess we'll be friends I guess we'll be friends
Oh why (why) Can't (can't) You take me in your arms now? Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me? Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me in your arms now? Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me?
Better stop crying, hello and goodbying Go on through me, slip on through my hands You get your time and the other half's mine It's okay, this love weighs fifty men It's okay, this love weighs fifty men It's okay, this love weighs fifty men
Oh why (why) Can't (can't) You take me in your arms now? Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me? Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me in your arms now? Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me?
Why (why) Can't (can't) You take me in your arms now? Why can't you take me?
