Nights I Can't Love You

Do you wanna know what love is?
It aint out here crying
In the dark on the front porch
with your makeup running.
On the phone with a man who
will never love you like I do
When you don't want me
I still want you.

Do you wanna know the worst part
Is when you say it's not my fault
But you're breaking down
And I'm breaking down
All the words that I can't say
Burning up in my ribcage
Feeling all the pain

Do you wanna know what love is?

It's breaking all the rules
It's admitting when we're fools
Knowing that our hearts might break
Even then we choose to stay
You'll never hear me say
Tonight I can't love you
Tonight I can't love you

You remember the night when
We were dancing in the kitchen
And then I held you close
We spoke in whispers
When I took your hand
I said I'll give you three wishes
The look in your eyes said
I wanna know what love is

It's breaking all the rules
It's admitting when we're fools
Knowing that our hearts might break
Even then we choose to stay
You'll never hear me say
Tonight I can't love you
Tonight I can't love you
