Why Can't He Be You

	Written by hank cochran
	Released october 8, 1962
	He takes me to the places you and i used to go
	He tells me over and over that he loves me so
	He gives me love that i never got from you
	He loves me too, his love is true
	Why can't he be you
	He never fails to call and tell me i'm on his mind
	And i'm lucky to have such a guy; i hear it all the time
	And he does all the things that you would never do
	He loves me, too, his love is true
	Why can't he be you
	He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul
	And i should love him so, 'cause he loves me, i know
	But his kisses leave me cold
	He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love
	And my friends say when he's around, i'm all he speaks of
	And he does all the things that you would never do
	He loves me too, his love is true
	Why can't he be you
