You're too young and I'm too tall We're two strangers after all There's no reason why we should fall But let's give it a shot, why not? When people ask me why, I smile and I reply Why not? I've got habits you can't break You've got friends that I can't take Love is pointless for heaven's sake But let's return the plot, why not? When people ask me why, I smile and I reply Why not? We could say goodbye and blow the deal We might save ourselves a lot of heartache But let's not forget this glory deal You can't deny, it's worth a try, why not? You can't deny, it's worth a try, why not? What if romance turns out great? My pulse races in such a state Why court danger and why tempt fate? But then on second thought, why not? Let's give it a shot, let's dig in the plot On second thought, why not? When people ask me why, I smile and I reply Why not? Give it a shot, why not? No, you can't deny, no, it's worth a try, why not? Why not?
