Why Can't You (Conrad's Song) - Jon Wolfe

That western bull on 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?

And even that old country fare

Rolls through town every year

And 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 lat-night hangs, baseball games, and fishing trips

That six-pack summer, can’t blieve 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 country fare

Rolls through town every year

And 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?
