Can You Discover? Lyrics

Oh baby baby babe,
How long am I supposed to wait
I think about you nightly
Oh can you tell i'm losing sleep

Oh what am I supposed to do?
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak

My bed's too big for just me
When you turn your eyes
I promise I won't care
Oh baby baby babe

Oh baby baby please
My heart sinks to my feet
Oh baby baby do you know
I think about you nightly

My bed's too big for just me
When you turn your eyes
I promise I won't care
Standing by your sister fair

Oh baby baby please
I think about you nightly
Oh baby baby babe

When I look into your eyes
I tend to lose my thoughts
Don't forget your stare
Oh what was that you said
Would you let me know
'Cause I can't read your mind
Oh can you tell
I can't even explain

Oh baby baby babe
Oh baby baby bae
Explain

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

A beautiful recreation of the Ra Ra Riot original "Can You Tell." Since the lyrics are essentially the same, this song seems to be a cheery plea for some attention from the girl that the singer is so desperately trying to reach out to. An original fantastic song with added synth and a groovier, dancier vibe that makes the song that much more happy and perhaps even, optimistic.

Definitely my favorite song off their LP. I agree with sentimentalist that it has an almost optimistic feeling despite the kinda desperate lyrics.
