Why Not

Why not? Why not?

You act like you don't know me

When you see me on the street

You're makin' like I turn you off

When I know you think I'm sweet

It don't have to be like that

I guess you're insecure

If you say what's on your mind

I might answer, "Sure"

So I walk a little slower and I try to catch your eye

Sometimes it's so hard to see the good things passing by

There may never be a sign, no flashing neon light

Telling you to make your move or when the time is right

(So) why not (why not) take a crazy chance?

Why not (why not) do a crazy dance?

If you lose the moment, you might lose a lot

So, why not? Why not?

(Why not take a crazy chance?)

(Why not take a crazy chance?)

You always dress in yellow when you wanna dress in gold

Instead of listening to your heart, you do just what you're told

You keep waiting where you are, for what, you'll never know

Let's just get into your car and go, baby, go

(So) why not (why not) take a crazy chance?

Why not (why not) do a crazy dance?

If you lose the moment, you might lose a lot

So, why not? Why not?

Oh, I could be the one for you

Oh, yeah, maybe yes, maybe no

Oh, it could be the thing to do

What I'm saying is, you gotta let me know

You'll never get to heaven, or even to LA

If you don't believe there's a way

Why not (why not) take a star from the sky? (Take a star from the sky)

Why not (why not) spread your wings and fly?

Oh, it might take a little, and it might take a lot

But why not? Why not?

Why not (take a crazy chance) take a crazy chance?

Why not (do a crazy dance) do a crazy dance?

If you lose the moment, you might lose a lot

So, why not? Why not?
