Can’t We Try Lyrics By Teddy Pendergrass

    come lay your head on my heart
    soon it’ll be apart stay here to the touch of morning
    i’m glad we’re leaving as friends
    baby by the way i forgot to say

    can’t we try love was never born to say goodbye
    just another helpless fool in love is what i am
    but i don’t give a damn
    sorry i forgot myself
    i guess that i’m just not myself

    and i know that we’re not supposed to cry
    love was supposed to die when people get to know each other
    in case i don’t see you again
    really wish you well baby this is hell

    can’t we try love was never born to say goodbye
    touch me one more time and make me feel that i’m alive
    and if we don’t survive
    at least we’ll have a moment here with honest pain and tears

    then say goodbye
    come lay your head down on my heart
    the morning suddenly leads you
    you know that i don’t need you
    we can’t go back to yesterday go away
    girl i wished you’d stay

    can’t we try love was never born to say goodbye
    touch me one more time and make me feel that i’m alive
    and if we don’t survive
    then we will end like we began and even though it’s over
    can’t we try let’s go back to yesterday and i
    just another helpless fool in love is what i am
    but i don’t give a damn
    see once before i set you free i just got to hold you close to me
    can’t we try love was never born to say goodbye
    i want you to touch me touch me one more time
    and make me feel that i’m alive
    and if we don’t survive
    then we can end like we began and even though it’s over
    can’t we try let’s go back to yesterday and i
    see i’m just another just another helpless fool in in love is what i am
    but i don’t give a damn
    see once before i set you free i got to have you i got to have you

    can’t we try
    love was never born to say goodbye
