Could I Wouldn'T I

Verse 1. Like a door you opened up your heart; Like the floor you've walked me out; What am I to do What am I to do You reject my love; CHROUS: Oh! could I love you; Wouldn't I be allowed to All you have to do; Is say yes, too; Once again, I'm asking; Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love; Like a painting on the wall; Like a nail holding it up so that it doesn't fall; What am I to do What am I to do You've rejected me now I'm blue; CHROUS: Oh! could I love you; Wouldn't I be allowed to All you have to do; Is say yes, too; Once again, I'm asking; Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love; Now I've shut the door And I'm standing still here on the floor And I'm not going no where I've taken the painting down from the wall And the nail I placed it in the trash; (so your bare foot won't step on it) This love will last, I'm standing here just to say... CHROUS: Oh! could I love you; Wouldn't I be allowed to All you have to do; Is say yes, too; Once again, I'm asking; Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love; Couldn't I and wouldn't would you allow us to be in love; 08/29/17 written words & Arranged music by James Edward Lee Sr. & The Corinthian
