[Verse 1]
Come, lay your head on my heart
Soon we'll be apart
Stay here 'til the touch of morning
I'm glad we're living as friends
Baby, by the way
I forgot to say...

[Chorus 1]
Can't we try (can't we try)
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Love was never born to say goodbye
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Just another helpless fool in love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
Sorry, I forgot myself
I guess that I'm just not myself

[Verse 2]
I know that we're not s'posed to cry
And love is s'posed to die
When people get to know each other
In case I don't see you again
I really wish you well
But baby, this is hell...
[Chorus 2]
Can't we try (can't we try)
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Let's go back to yesterday and lie
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
At least we'll have a moment here
With honest pain and tears
Then say goodbye...

[Verse 2]
I know that we're not s'posed to cry
And love is s'posed to die
When people get to know each other
In case I don't see you again
I really wish you well
But baby, this is hell...

[Chorus 3]
Can't we try (can't we try)
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Love was never born to say goodbye
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
We can end like we begin
And even though it's over...
[Outro]
Can't we try (can't we try), baby
Can't we try (can't we try), can't we try, baby
Can't we try (can't we try)
Love was never born to say goodbye
(Can't we try, can't we try)
Just another helpless fool in love is what I am...
