[Spoken intro]
This is when I was living underneath Arthur in Laurel Canyon, about '67
[Verse 1]
I can never say the right words
I can never find the way
I should have loved you
We should have had a loving thing
I should have told you
About the happiness you'd bring
[Chorus]
And we could be alone
And we could find our own special joy
[Verse 2]
You walk in the room, I'm standing there
Always look the other way
It's softly hard, dear
When your heart is on a thread
To break the ice, dear
The night is gone and nothing's said
[Chorus]
And we could be alone
And we could find our own special joy
[Verse 3]
I can never say the right words
I can never find the way
I should have loved you
We should have had a lovely thing
I should have told you
About the happiness you'd bring
[Chorus]
And you could be alone
And we could find our own special joy
