Just Cause I Can

lyrics

Just cause I can doesn't mean I should
Just cause it shines doesn't mean it's good

Hit the road in my brand new Benz
Leather cool beneath my hands
Got a monthly plan; I’m out a hundred grand
All my friends act so impressed
Tell me I’m killin it
But they know the truth and all I have to lose
This is me at my worst haunting me at my best

Just cause I can doesn’t mean I should
Just cause it shines doesn’t mean it’s good
I don’t know why I do this every time
Always seems I’m falling again
Just Cause I can, ohhhh

I learned young not to play with fire
Then I met you and you took me higher
Than a bird in flight, but something wasn’t right
No I never should’ve even let you start
Always knew you’d break my heart
Like you break the rules, yeah you’re so cool
Always me at my worst haunting me at my best

Just cause I can doesn’t mean I should
Just cause it shines doesn’t mean it’s good
I don’t know why I do this every time
Always seems I’m falling again
Just cause I can, ohhhh
Just cause I can, ohhhh

Just when I think I ended it
You walk through my door again
With a tempting grin, shivers through my skin
I feel good when I’m with you
Hold me close and I start to lose
Myself in you; I get so confused
But maybe I’ll finally realize

Just cause I can doesn’t mean I should
Just cause it shines doesn’t mean it’s good
Now I know I can do it better this time
I don’t need to be falling again
Just cause I can, ohhhh
Just cause I can, ohhhh

Just cause I can
