I Cannot Make It

Lyrics

I cannot make it
 I'm so hip
 If I make it 'til tomorrow I'll be surprised
 (I'll be surprised, I'll be surprised)
 I am left with all the sorrow, look at my eyes, girl
 (Look at my eyes, look at my eyes)
 I been thinkin', I been fooled
 There've been times when I've blown my cool
 Said, I love her
 (Can't let her get away)
 Said, I love her
 (Won't be a fool today)
 ♪
 The very next line will blow my mind, girl
 (Will blow my mind, will blow my mind)
 Yes, I love her but she's takin' all the time
 (All the time, all the time)
 I will not accept another
 I would rather be her brother
 Said, I love her
 (Can't let her get away)
 Said, I love her
 (Won't be a fool today)
 ♪
 Wanna keep me cryin' (oh yeah)
 Sighin' (oh yeah), dyin' (uh-huh)
 Lyin' (yeah, yeah)
 Wanna keep me, wanna keep me (yeah, yeah)
 Cryin' (oh yeah), sighin' (oh yeah), dyin'
 Lyin' (uh-huh, oh yeah)
 I wanna hear you say
 
 If I cannot keep a watch on your daily news
 (Your daily news, your daily news)
 I might lose my head from havin' all these blues
 (All these blues, all these blues)
 I know then, that I shouldn't
 Plus the fact I probably couldn't
 I said, I love her
 (Can't let her get away)
 Said, I love her
 (Won't be a fool today)
 ♪
 Wanna keep me cryin' (oh yeah)
 Sighin' (uh-huh), dyin' (oh yeah)
 Lyin' (yeah, yeah)
 Yeah, yeah
 Wanna keep me cryin' (oh yeah)
 Sighin' (oh), dyin' (yeah, yeah)
 Lyin' (yeah, yeah)
 ♪
 I cannot make it
 I'm so hip, oh yeah
