I Can Lift a Car Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I come home
When I come home
Oh I hear you washing in the shower
Mirages of you
Mirages of you
Even steam pouring through the crack at the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't lose it, I won't lose it, I won't lose it
I won't lose it, I won't lose it
Hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
Hold it steady, hold it steady
[Chorus]
All by myself
I can lift a car
All by myself
I can lift a car
I can lift a car up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
I can lift a car up all by myself
When I come home
When I come home
Oh I hear you washing in the shower
Mirages of you
Mirages of you
Even steam pouring through the crack at the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't lose it, I won't lose it, I won't lose it
I won't lose it, I won't lose it
Hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
Hold it steady, hold it steady
[Chorus]
All by myself
I can lift a car
All by myself
I can lift a car
I can lift a car up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
I can lift a car up all by myself
[Verse 2]
So very nice
So very nice
My grandpa's leather jacket and goggles
So you kissed me
On the futon
Oh I hope you like it in Chicago
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
Hold it steady, hold it steady
I won't lose it, I won't lose it, I won't lose it
I won't lose it, I won't lose it
[Chorus]
All by myself
I can lift a car
All by myself
I can lift a car
I can lift a car up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
I can lift a car up all by myself
So very nice
So very nice
My grandpa's leather jacket and goggles
So you kissed me
On the futon
Oh I hope you like it in Chicago
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
Hold it steady, hold it steady
I won't lose it, I won't lose it, I won't lose it
I won't lose it, I won't lose it
[Chorus]
All by myself
I can lift a car
All by myself
I can lift a car
I can lift a car up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
I can lift a car up all by myself
[Bridge]
Did you did you
Did you know that
I can lift a car up all by myself
Well no misunderstanding
I'm not saying that you can't
But did you know that
I can lift a car up all by myself
[Verse 3]
I've been going out
And trying to stay fit
Well I met someone who wears your glasses
She kissed me on
My new futon
Oh I'm clumsy 'cause she finds me attractive
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't lose it, I won't lose it, I won't lose it
I won't lose it, I won't lose it
(Over top one another):
All by myself
I can lift a car
All by myself
I can lift a car
Did you did you
Did you know that
I can lift a car up all by myself
Well no misunderstanding
I'm not saying that you can't
But did you know that
I can lift a car up all by myself
[Verse 3]
I've been going out
And trying to stay fit
Well I met someone who wears your glasses
She kissed me on
My new futon
Oh I'm clumsy 'cause she finds me attractive
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't lose it, I won't lose it, I won't lose it
I won't lose it, I won't lose it
(Over top one another):
All by myself
I can lift a car
All by myself
I can lift a car
I can lift a car up all by myself
[Chorus]
All by myself
Up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
I can lift a car up all by myself
Did you did you
Did you know that
I can lift a car up all by myself
Well no misunderstanding
I'm not saying that you can't
I can lift a car up all by myself
[Chorus]
All by myself
Up all by myself
All by myself
Up all by myself
I can lift a car up all by myself
Did you did you
Did you know that
I can lift a car up all by myself
Well no misunderstanding
I'm not saying that you can't
I can lift a car up all by myself
