In the Fmorning when they Gfound us
And we Fwoke up in the coconut wGind
How you tFook my hand and toGld me
All the sFtories of the places you'd bGeen
And hDmow you thought that I would mGake it
NDmow you were the one for Gme, yeah
FHow can you Greally love someoAmne who can't love you
FHow can you Glove someone yAmou can't leave
FIt's my Gfault, iAmt's your fault too
FHow 'bout you go and fiGnd somebody wAmho can love you
When I Fwake up in the Gmorning
How long unFtil you roll in my Gdreams
But how I Flearned not to Gcare
If you're not the Fstory that's easily Gseized
And how can you Ftreat me so Gbadly
If you Flove me don't treat me so Gmean
Cause I'm... Fdarlin', politely Gasking
Can't you Fsee all the pain that I'm Gin
It's Dmgettin' pretty hard to Gmake it
That's aDmll the time for me, aGnd for you
Chorus: X4
FHow can you Greally love someoAmne who can't love you
FHow can you Glove someone yAmou can't leave
FIt's my Gfault, iAmt's your fault too
FHow 'bout you go and fiGnd somebody wAmho can love you
