I Can't Get You Lyrics

I can't get you to kiss me at the bottom of the hill

I can't get you to sing your favorite song in the car

No, your window stays still

I can't get you to laugh or get you to smile

For no reason at all

I can't get you to pretend you had a good time last fall

I look around and I can see all the shadows in the room

Forcing a smile in front of your mother

Though I'd never want to assume

That someone's been breaking the upstairs rule

That we're not used to

But I can't see that far from far away

And I can't get you

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

I can't get you to try

I shouldn't have to get you to do anything

At all

Every morning in the shower

I think about how I never hear a phone call

Even though I know it's not the same

Even though I know I'm not to blame

I can't get you at all

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

I sit on the couch

Divided, I look around

All the boys that aren't me fill the space between us

Yes, every one in town

I can't get you to look at me

I can't get you to say Merry Christmas

I can't get you to love me anymore

So you let me go
