Gumboots Lyrics by Paul Simon

Gumboots Lyrics

    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 breakdown
    I said breakdowns come
    And breakdowns go
    So what are you going to do about it
    That's what i'd like to know
    You don't feel you could love me
    But i feel you could

    It was in the early morning hours
    When i fell into a phone call
    Believing i had supernatural powers
    I slammed into a brick wall
    I said hey, is this my problem?
    Is this my fault?
    If that's the way it's going to be
    I'm going to call the whole thing to a halt

    You don't feel you could love me
    But i feel you could
    You don't feel you could love me
    But i feel you could

    I 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 day
    I said hey senorita that's astute
    I said why don't we get together
    And call ourselves an institute

    You don't feel you could love me
    But i feel you could
    You don't feel you could love me
    But i feel you could
