  • When you hold me in the street and you kiss me on the dance floor
    I wish that it could be like that
    Why can't it be like that?
    'Cause I'm yours

    We keep behind closed doors
    Every time I see you, I die a little more
    Stolen moments that we steal as the curtain falls
    It'll never be enough
    It's obvious you're meant for me
    Every piece of you, it just fits perfectly
    Every second, every thought, I'm in so deep
    But I'll never show it on my face

    But we know this, we got a love that is hopeless

    Why can't you hold me in the street?
    Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
    I wish that it could be like that
    Why can't we be like that?
    'Cause I'm yours

    When you're with him, do you call his name
    Like you do when you're with me? Does it feel the same?
    Would you leave if I was ready to settle down?
    Or would you play it safe and stay?

    Girl, you know this, we got a love that is hopeless

    Why can't you hold me in the street?
    Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor? (I wish)
    I wish that it could be like that
    Why can't we be like that?
    'Cause I'm yours

    And nobody knows I'm in love with someone's baby
    I don't wanna hide us away
    Tell the world about the love we making
    I'm living for that day
    Someday

    Why can't I hold you in the street?
    Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
    I wish that we could be like that
    Why can't we be like that?
    'Cause I'm yours, I'm yours

    Oh, why can't you hold me in the street?
    Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
    I wish that it could be like that (I wish)
    Why can't it be like that? (I wish)
    'Cause I'm yours ('cause I'm yours)
    Why can't I say that I'm in love?
    I wanna shout it from the rooftops
    I wish that it could be like that (I wish)
    Why can't we be like that?
    'Cause I'm yours

    Why can't we be like that?
    Wish we could be like that Writer/s: Emma Rohan, Jason Joel Desrouleaux, Jez Ashurst, Rachel Furner
