We’ve got a fire we try to hide,

Two hearts dancing on a fault line.

We touch, then run — we break, then mend,

Like a story that never knows how to end.

Late nights talking like it’s meant to be,

But the morning always steals you from me.

You say it’s wrong, you say not now —

But tell me, babe, if not, then how?

We’ve got sparks, we’ve got scars,

You pull me close just to fall apart.

Why can’t this be love, real and loud?

Why can’t we stop hiding in the crowd?

It feels so right, it cuts so deep —

You’re the only truth I ever want to keep.

We’ve got the flame, we’ve got enough…

So tell me — why can’t this be love?

You say timing’s just not fair,

But fate don't care, it got us here.

We keep dancing on this edge,

Afraid to fall, but we’ve already leapt.

Your eyes say everything your lips deny,

One more kiss, and we both know why.

This isn’t just some passing game —

So why are we still afraid of the name?

We’ve got dreams, we’ve got pain,

But love like this don’t come again.

Why can’t this be love, wild and free?

Why do we keep locking up the key?

It’s in your touch, it’s in my veins,

Running like thunder through my brain.

We’ve got the fight, we’ve got enough…

So tell me — why can’t this be love?

[Bridge] (stripped down, emotional)

Are we scared of what we’d lose?

Or just afraid of facing truth?

But I’d rather crash than never try…

'Cause this almost-love is killing me inside.

[Final Chorus] (soaring rock power)

Why can’t this be love, true and loud?

Why are we still lost in the crowd?

If this is wrong, I’ll take the blame,

But I won’t keep playing the no-name game.

We’ve got the fire, we’ve got enough…

So tell me, baby — why can’t this be love?

Yeah, why can’t this…

Why can’t this be love? 🎤🔥
