WHY NOT (DUET)
© Scott Miller/Lee Johnson
V 1 Male:
YOUR SMILE ALMOST KNOCKED ME DOWN
MY JAW JUST 'BOUT HIT, THE GROUND
I STRAINED MY NECK AS YOU WALKED BY
KNEW I'D NEVER SEE THAT SMILE, AGAIN
IF I DIDN'T TAKE A CHANCE RIGHT THEN
I WORKED UP THE NERVE TO GO SAY HI
WHY NOT, WHY WAIT?
MAYBE THIS COULD BE FATE
WHO KNOWS, IT MIGHT
BE THE MOMENT THAT CHANGES OUR LIVES
MIGHT AS WELL GIVE IT A SHOT,
WHY NOT?
V2 Female:
I TURNED WHEN YOU ASKED MY NAME
I THOUGHT I MIGHT JUST WALK AWAY
SOMETHING IN YOUR EYES CHANGED MY MIND
SO I PULLED OUT A BRIGHT RED PEN
WROTE MY NUMBER ON THE PALM OF YOUR HAND
WITH A SMILE I SAID, "CALL ME SOMETIME...
CHORUS 2 LIKE CH 1, THEN BRIDGE:
NEVER KNOW WHERE THIS MIGHT LEAD
COULD BE BETTER THAN WE EVER DREAMED
CH 3 W TAGS ETC....
WHY NOT, WHY WAIT?
MAYBE THIS COULD BE FATE
WHO KNOWS, IT MIGHT
BE A MOMENT THAT LASTS A LIFE
MIGHT AS WELL GIVE IT A SHOT,
MIGHT BE BETTER THAN WE EVER THOUGHT
WHY NOT? WHY NOT? WHY NOT? WHY NOT?
