Could I Wouldn'T I
Verse 1.
Like a door you opened up your heart;
Like the floor you've walked me out;
What am I to do
What am I to do
You reject my love;
CHROUS:
Oh! could I love you;
Wouldn't I be allowed to
All you have to do;
Is say yes, too;
Once again, I'm asking;
Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love;
Like a painting on the wall;
Like a nail holding it up so that it doesn't fall;
What am I to do
What am I to do
You've rejected me now I'm blue;
CHROUS:
Oh! could I love you;
Wouldn't I be allowed to
All you have to do;
Is say yes, too;
Once again, I'm asking;
Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love;
Now I've shut the door
And I'm standing still here on the floor
And I'm not going no where
I've taken the painting down from the wall
And the nail I placed it in the trash; (so your bare foot won't step on it)
This love will last, I'm standing here just to say...
CHROUS:
Oh! could I love you;
Wouldn't I be allowed to
All you have to do;
Is say yes, too;
Once again, I'm asking;
Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love;
Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love;
