Don’t give me your don’ts or surround me with won’ts
I say no to your no’s. People drown in their woes.
From their heads to their toes singing!
“I’m no good!
I’m the best!”
‘I’M NO GOOD.
I’M THE BEST!”
feeling afflicted
as I’m contradicted
I feel an intrusion
Cloudy confusion
Darkened illusion
Go away and give this head a rest!
GO AWAY AND GIVE THIS HEAD A REST!
Couldn’t stop saying couldn’t
Should have stopped saying shouldn’t
Stuck in your “NO”, as I go find my “YES”
Stuck in your “NO”, as I go find my “YES”
And I CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes I Can
I can love you from afar
I can love you from afar
I can love you from afar
I CAN LOVE
I CAN LOVE
