you don't look me in the eyes
you barely hear my voice
i don't know if you'd say you knew me
if you were given the choice
but i'm waiting here alone, i won't be refused
just give me a little hint, that maybe i matter to you
i've tried to show you all i am
i've given you every reason to take my hand

WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME, WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME
WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME LIKE I LOVE YOU

i'm looking for a sign
the competition's fierce
just a little word or two
is all i want to hear
i've given you all i have
yeah i've given you my life
but still you look right through me
like a shadow in the night

CHORUS:
i raise my voice like thunder try to wake you from your slumber
it's patient words i whisper in the wind
there's nothing i wouldn't do to make you feel the love i have for you
so i ask you once again, why won’t you love me

WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME, WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME
WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME LIKE I LOVE YOU
WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME LIKE THE SUN LOVES THE SKY
LIKE TODAY LOVES TONIGHT
WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME LIKE I LOVE YOU
