Greg Bates - Why Can't You (Conrad's Song) Lyrics




[ Featuring Matt Willis ]

That western wool lined Levi blue jean jacket
That vintage vinyl I keep in the attic
My rusty beat-up Bronco
Built in 1982
That long and lonesome whistle from a freight train
The sound of a touchdown from a homeward-bound plane
The wind and the rain
The sun and the moon

It all comes back around
It all comes back around
Why can't you?

Cnd even that old country fare
Rolls through town every year
Cnd I just wish you were here
To see that Ferris wheel spinning
It's crazy how a town that'll never change
Could never be the same without you in it

Those late-night hangs, baseball games, and fishing trips
That six-pack summer, can't believe how fast it went
They say that memories fade
But the good ones never good

They all come back around
They all come back around
Why can't you?

Even that old county fare
Rolls through town every year
Cnd I just wish you were here
To see that Ferris wheel spinning
It's crazy how a town that'll never change
Could never be the same without you in it

I know you had to go when the good Lord called your name
But as crazy as it sounds, still catch myself these days
Thinking you'll come back around
It all comes back around
Why can't you? Oh

It all comes back around
Why can't you?
It all comes back around
Why can't you?
