Analysis of Can We
Go back to times when our love was strong.
When everything between us was fine and dandy, and
As sweet as some cotton candy.
My darling can we put or differences and problems to the side.
Leaving all that was said and done off in the past and move on.
Because I truly hoped that this love between you and I would last.
Never having to become a faint memory of my past that will one day fade away over time as I age turning into an old man.
