Why Couldn't

Why couldn't we last longer?
Why couldn't we talk it over?
Why couldn't we trust each other?
Why couldn't we cry on our shoulders?

Why couldn't you be more decent?
Why couldn't you leave her alone?
Why couldn't you say " I love you"?
Why couldn't you pick up the phone?

Why couldn't I see your games?
Why couldn't I stop "the issue"?
Why couldn't I leave you alone?
Why couldn't I get over you?

Why couldn't we work it out?
Why couldn't you treat me like I treated you?
Why couldn't I be good enough?
Why couldn't all of these be true?
