Paul Simon

I was having this discussion
In a taxi heading downtown
Rearranging my position
On this friend of mine who had a little bit of a breakdownI said, hey, no breakdowns come
And breakdowns go
So what are you going to do about it
That's what I'd like to knowYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldWas in the early morning hours
When I fell into a phone call
Believing I had supernatural powers
I slammed into a brick wallI said, hey, is this my problem?
Is this my fault?
If that's the way it's gonna be
I'm gonna call the whole thing to a haltYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldYou don't feel you can love me
But I feel you couldI was walking down the street
When I thought I heard this voice say
Say, ain't we walking down the same street together
On the very same dayAnd I said, hey Senorita, that's astute
I said, why don't we get together
And call ourselves an instituteYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldYou don't feel you can love me
But I feel you couldI was having this discussion
In a taxi heading downtown
