Why Can't It Be is an acoustic ballad that delves deep into the pain of unrequited love and the struggles of a connection that simply can’t evolve into more.

Why Can't It Be
[Verse]
I see you standing there, but you’re so far away
A million miles between us, though we talk every day
I feel the spark inside, but it's not meant to be
We’re caught in the shadows, of what we can’t set free
[Pre-Chorus]
We met in a world where love’s not enough
Tangled in places, times too tough
I whisper your name, but the silence remains
Why can’t it be? Why can’t it change?
[Chorus]
Why can’t it be you and me?
Caught in the space where love can’t breathe
Falling for you, but fate’s not kind
Locked in a friendship, love left behind
Why can’t it be, why can’t we see
That we're just not meant to be?
[Verse 2]
The nights grow colder as I dream of your face
But dreams fade quickly, leaving no trace
We laugh together, but my heart’s breaking inside
Hiding the feelings I can never confide
[Pre-Chorus]
In another life, we’d dance through the rain
But now all we have is this lingering pain
I hold on to hope, but it's slipping away
Why can’t it be? Why can’t you stay?
[Chorus]
Why can’t it be you and me?
Caught in the space where love can’t breathe
Falling for you, but fate’s not kind
Locked in a friendship, love left behind
Why can’t it be, why can’t we see
That we're just not meant to be?
[Bridge]
We’re stars that burn in the night
But never collide, never shine bright
You’ll always be close, but never mine
Why can’t it be, why’s love so blind?
[Chorus]
Why can’t it be you and me?
Caught in the space where love can’t breathe
Falling for you, but fate’s not kind
Locked in a friendship, love left behind
Why can’t it be, why can’t we see
That we're just not meant to be?
[Outro]
Why can’t it be...
Why can’t it be... us?
