I Can't

I can't pull out photo albums, videos for us to reminisce
Not enough good times become a nuisance

I can't plan dates of romantic and rendezvous trips

Those acts are disappearing, as one slips

I can't be a proud-to-be father, tell family, we're expecting

Fertilizer to the carrier is not connecting

I can't share with you, success and flaws

Criticized for my efforts from unstoppable jaws

I can't comfort on a daily basis to even love you

You'll think, I wanna be above you

I can't with you or any woman, just do right

For us, I'll fight, but our past makes it all uptight

I can't be with you, until death does us apart

We tried to keep happiness, without broken heart
