I Can’t Go On This Way
[Verse 1]
I want to be near you
I want you here by my side
Want to be held close to you
You make me feel so alive
But you always got to leave
You can't ever stay with me

[Chorus]
And I can't go on
(Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
Said I can't go on this way (Oh no, I can't go on)

[Verse 2]
Needin' you to soothe my soul
Lovin' you forever, this is my goal

[Chorus]
But I can't go on, no-no-no-no-no-no
(I can't go on, I can't go on)
Said I can't go on this way (I can't go on)

[Verse 3]
Needin' you so, wanting you more and more
And each day without you
Leaves much more love in store
Wishful thoughts of things to come
Anticipation of a job well done
[Chorus]
(Can't go on this way)
And I can't go on, no-no-no-no (I can't go on)
Said I can't go on this way (Woah no, I can't go on)

[Verse 4]
Can't you see how much I need you?
Can't you see I've got feelings too?

[Chorus]
But I can't go on (I can't go on, I can't go on)
Said I can't go on this way (I can't go on)
Said I can't go on, no no
Said I can't go on this way

[Bridge]
Can't go on, can't go on
Can't go on, can't go on
Can't go on, can't go on

[Verse 5]
My hopes will a-way up high (Way up high)
Still, I just don't know why
You always got to leave
You can't ever stay with me
[Chorus]
And I can't go on (Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
Said I can't go on this way (Oh no, I can't go on)
Said I can't go on, needin' you (Go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Said I can't go on, wantin' your love (Go on, can't go on)
Said I can't go on this way (Go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Needin' your love like I do (Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
Said I can't go on (Go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Said I can't go on this way (Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
(Can't go on, can't go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Why do you have to be you?
(Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
Why can't you еver stay here with mе?
(Can't go on, can't go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Girl, I can't go on without you
(Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
No-no-no-no-no-no-no, no

[Outro]
Said I can't go on, darling
(Can't go on, can't go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Said I can't go on, baby
(Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
No I can't, darling
(Can't go on, can't go on, hoo hoo hoo)
Said I can't go on this way, woo!
(Can't go on this way, I can't go on)
(Can't go on, can't go on, hoo hoo hoo)
(Can't go on)
