I Can Tell Lyrics

I can tell by the way
When I'm holding you tight
Something's wrong
No it's never been right
I can tell by the way
That you stare in my eyes
It's empty in you
And there's nothing inside

What if I told you
That I've been thinking and I've been dreaming of you
And all the things I always thought that we'd do
What if it's never enough

I can't figure out
Why you don't love me now
So why'd you tear me down
I'm faceless in the crowd
So tell me this is real
Because I can't help but feel
I'm heading for heartache

Can I make you feel
Like you've never been kissed
Like a picture you paint
Will I ever be missed
Would you stay if I told you
My love wouldn't change
If your hair turns gray
If you gain a little weight

What if I told you
That I've been thinking and I've been dreaming of you
And all the things I always thought that we'd do
What if it's never enough

I can't figure out
Why you don't love me now
So why'd you tear me down
I'm faceless in the crowd
So tell me this is real
Because I can't help but feel
I'm heading for heartache

I'm not giving you up
I'm not giving you up
I'm heading for heartache

I can't figure out
Why you don't love me now
So why'd you tear me down
I'm faceless in the crowd
So tell me this is real
Because I can't help but feel
I'm heading for heartache

Cover art for I Can Tell lyrics by Adelitas Way

There was a few minor mistakes in the lyrics but there were also some pretty big ones. Here are the correct lyrics with the corrections in all caps:

I can tell by the way When I'm holding you tight Something IS wrong No it's never been right I can SEE by the way That you stare in my eyes It's empty in you And there's nothing inside

What if I told you That I've been thinking and I've been dreaming of you And all the things I always thought that we'd do What if it's never enough

OH I can't FIGURE OUT WHY you don't love me now So why'd you tear me down I'm faceless in the CROWD So tell me IS THIS real Because I can't help but feel I'm heading for heartache

Can I make you feel Like you've never been kissed Like a picture you paint Will I ever be missed Would you stay if I told you My love wouldn't change If your HAIR turns GREY If you GAIN a little WEIGHT

What if I told you That I've been thinking and I've been dreaming of you And all the things I always thought that we'd do What if it's never enough

OH I can't FIGURE OUT WHY you don't love me now So why'd you tear me down I'm faceless in the CROWD So tell me IS THIS real Because I can't help but feel I'm heading for heartache I'm heading for heartache

I'm not giving you up I'm not giving you up I'm heading for heartache

OH I can't FIGURE OUT WHY you don't love me now So why'd you tear me down I'm faceless in the CROWD So tell me IS THIS real Because I can't help but feel I'm heading for heartache

Lyric Correction

After listening to it some more, 'What if it's never enough' should definitely be 'but it was never enough.' Sorry I didn't catch that earlier.
