Why Can't We Be Lovers Lyrics - The Complete 45s Collection: Invictus, Hot Wax, Music Merchant 1969-1977 - Holland-dozier-holland

Sometimes I feel like 

There's no use in trying 

Why can't I face the fact 

We've lost, we'll never get back 

I don't know where 

Where did we go wrong 

I say I'm leaving but 

My feelings are too strong 

And, baby, you know 

I'm in love, baby 

So in love with you, darling 

And I'll never be leaving 

No, I'm just make believing 

I'm in love, darling 

So in love with you, baby 

When I say I'm leaving 

Girl, I'm just make believing 

Mmm hmm, I ain't going nowhere 

No, baby, I ain't going nowhere 

Oh, darling, talk to me 

My, my, my, my, my 

Girl, you're the 

Habit I can't break 

I'd fall apart if you 

Weren't there when I awake 

I've said I'm leaving 

But I don't have the heart 

I can't picture you, baby 

You and I being apart 

If I say goodbye 

It doesn't mean I'm going 

And if I say there ain't no love 

You may still see it showing 

Ooh, ooh, baby 

Why can't we be lovers 

Oh, darling, from loving you 

I'll never recover 

If I say goodbye 

It doesn't mean I'm going 

And if I say there ain't no love 

You may still see it showing 

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, baby 

Why can't we be lovers 

Oh, darling, from loving you 

I'll never recover 

Baby, why can't we be lovers 

Oh, darling, hey, from loving you 

I'll never recover 

Cause I'm in love 

(I'm in love with you, baby) 

So in love 

(I'm so in love with you) 

And I'll never be leaving 

(You know I ain't going nowhere) 

Just make believing 

(Make believing all the time) 

I'm in love 

(That's all I ever do) 

So in love 

(I'm so in love with you) 

And I'm make believing 

(Can't take what I say seriously) 

When I say I'm leaving 

I'm in love, baby (hey, baby) 

(Baby) so in love with you 

(I love you, don't you understand) 

And I'll never be leaving 

(I ain't going nowhere) 

Girl, I'm just make believing 

(Nowhere) 

I'm in love 

(I'm so crazy about you) 

Ooh, so in love 

(This is it for me, mama) 

And I'll never be leaving 

(I'll never be leaving) 

Just make believing 

(I love you, you understand) 

Just make believing 

(I just make believe) 

I'll never be leaving 

(I ain't going nowhere)
