What makes something you can't have always look so good?
Why does something out of reach seem so fine?
What makes you thrill me more than any girl I know?
I guess it's just because you can't be mine
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me
And be satisfied with what I have?
And what's already mine?
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing?
I guess it's just because you can't be mine
What makes me always want a woman I can't have?
Why does someone else's silver always shine?
My passion rises every time you come
My passion rises every time you come
And I guess it's just because you can't be mine
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me?
And be satisfied with what's already mine?
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing?
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing?
I guess it's just because you can't be mine
