[Intro] [Verse 1] The untouchable mind has been spotted Should the little child approach her Or should the man stay back and wonder I think that I will just wait and dream So many questions fill my head All I want is to speak to my past But the past still is a mystery And it is far, far from being mine [Chorus 1] Why can't I walk? Why can't I speak? Well, why can't I breathe? What is this power you have over me? [Verse 2] All the gray turns black and white As I approach her the room grows large My head turns hot and my hands turn cold On my way to engage in a planned conversation But all the power I felt is gone Drawn into her is all of me I am so useless as I try to salvage nothing Now unknowingly she kills me with a smile [Chorus 2] Why can't I walk? Why can't I speak? Well, why can't I breathe? What is this power you have over me? [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Could this be my hopeless destiny Is the wounded animal to turn, run, and hide Should I fight back with my idea of charm Or is it over before it — which is nothing — begins You can’t make her spirit want your being If you could, I would do that right now But I will return and withdraw my hope I will sit and admire from a distant, safe far [Chorus 3] Why can't I walk? Why can't I speak? Well, why can't I breathe? What is this power you have over me? [Chorus 4] Why can't I walk? Why can't I speak? Well, why can't I breathe? What is this power you have over me? [Outro] You have over me Power You have over me Over me
