[Verse 1: Jade Thirlwall]
We keep behind closed doors
Every time I see you, I die a little more
Stolen moments that we steal as the curtain falls
It'll never be enough
As you drive me to my house
I can't stop these silent tears from rolling down
You and I both have to hide on the outside
Where I can't be yours and you can't be mine

[Pre-Chorus: Jade Thirlwall]
But I know this, we got a love that is hopeless

[Chorus: Jade Thirlwall]
Why can't I hold you in the street?
Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that? 'Cause I'm yours
Why can't I say that I'm in love?
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that? 'Cause I'm yours

[Verse 2: Jesy Nelson]
It's obvious you're meant for me
Every piece of you, it just fits perfectly
Every second, every thought, I'm in so deep
But I'll never show it on my face

[Pre-Chorus: Jesy Nelson]
But we know this, we got a love that is hopeless

[Chorus: Perrie Edwards]
Why can't you hold me in the street?
Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't we be like that? 'Cause I'm yours
Why can't I say that I'm in love?
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't we be like that? 'Cause I'm yours

[Bridge A: Leigh-Anne Pinnock]
I don't wanna live love this way
I don't wanna hide us away
I wonder if it ever will change
I'm living for that day, someday

[Bridge B: Jesy Nelson]
When you hold me in the street
And you kiss me on the dance floor
I wish that we could be like that
Why can't we be like that? Cause I'm yours, I'm yours

[Chorus: Leigh-Anne Pinnock & Perrie Edwards]
Oh, why can't you hold me in the street?
Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that? 'Cause I'm yours
Why can't I say that I'm in love?
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't we be like that? 'Cause I'm yours

[Outro: Perrie Edwards]
Why can't we be like that?
Wish we could be like that
