How Can I

[Intro]
But when I kissed him, my heart just wasn't in it

[Verse 1]
(How can I) go on living without you (How can I)
When all I do is dream (How can I) and think about you all the time?
(How can I) All the time I spend (How can I) just hating myself
Fearing you might decide to (How can I) fall in love with someone else

[Chorus]
How can I? (How can I?)
How can I? (How can I?)
How can I?

I held another, and I know that you seen it
I cross my heart and hope to die, I didn't mean it
My love for you strayed away for just a minute
But when I kissed him, my heart just wasn't in it

[Verse 2]
(How can I) I deserve it (How can I), so go on and make me suffer
Ah, but the suffering gets (How can I) tougher and tougher all the time
(How can I) All I do is pray (How can I) that you'll return some day
My darling, and say (How can I), say that you are mine

[Chorus]
How can I?

I held another, and I know that you seen it
I cross my heart and hope to die, I didn't mean it
My love for you strayed away just for just a minute
But when I kissed him, my heart just wasn't in it

[Verse 2]
(How can I) I deserve it (How can I), so go on and make me suffer
Ah, but the suffering gets (How can I) tougher and tougher all the time (How can I)
(How can I) All I do is pray (How can I) that you'll return some day
My darling, and say (How can I), say that you are mine

[Chorus]
How can I? (How can I?)
How can I? (How can I?)
How can I?

[Outro]
(How can I?) (Do-do-do-lo-do) Ooh, how can it go away?
(How can I?) (Do-do-do-lo-do) Ooh, suffering, suffering, baby
