Deborah Ann Gibson, credited as Debbie Gibson (born August 31, 1970 in Brooklyn, New York), is an American singer who was initially a teen idol appearing repeatedly on the cover of such teen magazines as Tiger Beat. In contrast to the prevalence of the name Debbie in her teen-idol phase, she showed a preference for "Deborah" even then, and her fans had, before the release of Naked, signalled a departure from that image by using this name to refer to her. When Gibson turned 16, she was signed to a recording contract by Atlantic Records, and soon she became the youngest person ever to write, record and produce a Number 1 hit, with her single Foolish Beat. Three other singles from her debut LP Out Of The Bluealso cracked the top 5 Billboard Top 100: Only In My Dreams, Out Of The Blue, and Shake Your Love. By the time Out Of The Bluewas established as a hit album, she and Tiffany, with her remake of I Think We're Alone Now, were fighting for the top position as teen queen of the United States.

I Can’t Lyrics

Debbie Gibson

Salut ma belle fille
[hello beautiful/gorgeous]
Ca va ce soir?
[how are you this evening? ]
Je crois que tu es absoluement jolie.
[i think youre positively beautiful]
Cest nous tout seul ce soir
[were alone tonight]
Et je veux etre avec toi
[and I want to be with you]
Ca cest cool
[thats cool]
The writings on the wall
And the words it spells arent very nice
Although Im me, youre you
Ive been down that road once or twice
And its ended in disaster
And someones heart always breaks
But, I cannot help but wonder
bout the love that we might make
Chorus:
I should walk away from you now
Should just turn right around
Should say Im never gonna fall for you
But I cant
Ive counseled many peers
In situations milder than this
And my advice to them
Was at all costs avoid that first kiss
But weve waltzed in dreams already
And I never could tell lies
And I cant resist the wonder
That is there behind those eyes
Chorus
Dangerous as it may be
I want to dance this dance
Let the world take me baby
But not before I take this chance
Ive told your heart good-bye
So why does mine refuse to hear?
Ive pondered what and why
I tremble when you are near
Youre the drink that makes me thirsty
But I crave you just the same
Chorus
Oh,
I should say Im never gonna fall for you
But I cant
