Why - HXLT

I keep the one I love at bay

Though I just want you near

Our hearts, they meet, then turn away

I won’t admit my fear

No I can’t see myself

In love at all

I’m scared of us I hear you call

Deaf ears they fall

I know that I can be better

But I don’t know where to start

I want to tell you I love you

But it just tears me apart

Why?

Why?

The things I say and do conflict

You try to understand

I tell you go and leave me be

But then extend my hand

I know that I can do better

Because I don’t want us to part

I have to tell you that I love you

But it just tears me apart

Why?

Why?

Why?
