There you go, now you know
The only thing I'll ever say is,
"Honey, can I stay with you?"

Cut my hair, grow it long
Played my song and I watched the sun
Burning. Can I stay with you?

Oh, loving you is easy
Watching you is nice
But everything I seem to do is wrong.

Feel I'm getting older
Younger every day.
Everything I seem to do is wrong.

Cigarettes, magazines
Perforated Chinese dreams
Chicken. Can I stay with you?

Sell the car, sell yourself
Touch your toes and count to twelve.
Listen, can I stay with you?

Loving you is easy
Watching you is nice
But everything I seem to do is wrong.

I feel I'm getting older
Younger every day.
And everything I seem to do is wrong.

I recall a summer night
making love by riverlight
Burning can I stay with you?

Maybe not, maybe now
Doesn't matter anyhow
But honey, can I stay with you?

Oh, loving you is easy
Watching you is nice
Everything I seem to do is wrong.

Feel I'm getting older
Younger every day.
And everything I seem to do is wrong.
