Liz Phair - Why Can't I - Various Artists

Get a load of me, get a load of you

Walkin down the street, and I hardly know you

It's just like we were meant to be

Holding hands with you when we're out at night

Got a girlfriend, you say it isn't right

And I've got someone waiting too

What if this is just the beginning

We're already wet, and we're gonna go swimming

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you?

It's inevitable

It's a fact that we're gonna get down to it

So tell me

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Whenever I think about you

Isn't this the best part of breakin up?

Finding someone else you can't get enough of

Someone who wants to be with you too

It's an itch we know we are gonna scratch

Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch

But wouldn't it be beautiful

Here we go, we're at the beginning

We haven't f**ked yet, but my heads spinning

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you?

It's inevitable

It's a fact that we're gonna get down to it

So tell me

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

High enough for you to make me wonder

Where it's goin

High enough for you to pull me under

Somethin's growin

Out of this that we can control

Baby I am dyin

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you?

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you?

It's inevitable

It's a fact that we're gonna get down to it

So tell me

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?

Whenever I think about you
