Why Can’t We Love Each Other

I feel like I'm broken
I know you feel the same
We're pretty damaged
Fragile and afraid

Why can't we love each other?
Why can't we love each other?

We both need somebody
Our houses are not homes
Why don't I ever see you
When you live just down the road?

It is a choice we can make
Our lives a song
Will it be a blues or a hymn?
A dirge or a Psalm

Why can't we love each other?
Why can't we love each other?

Life is so short, what are we waiting for?
Why can't we love each other?
Why can't we love each other?
Why can't we love each other?

It could be so simple
Just tell me what you want
Don't keep it to yourself
Don't stay shut in for too long

Aren't you tired of being lonely?
Aren't you sick of crying your eyes out?
Don't you want to stick with something?
Are you ready for forever now?

Why can't we love each other?
