because you can't be mine

Singer:haggard, merle

what makes something you can't have always look so good

why'd do something out of reach seem so fine

what makes you thrill me more than any girl i know

i guess it's just because you can't be mine. why can't i be contented with what belongs to me

and be satisfied with what's already mine

what makes a stolen moment such a precious thing

i guess it's just because you can't be mine. what makes me always want a woman i can't have

why the someone else's silver always shine

my patience rises every time you come around

and i guess it's just because you can't be mine. why can't i be contented with what belongs to me

and be satisfied with what's already mine

what makes a stolen moment such a precious thing

i guess it's just because you can't be mine.
