• Tell Me Why...


    Tell me why you feel this way;
    Tell me why you care.
    Tell me why you cherish the laughs
    And close moments that we share.

    Explain the reasons why you love me.
    Help me understand your heart;
    Why can you overlook my faults and weaknesses
    And suffer when we're apart?

    I sometimes look around us and
    Perfection is what I see.
    Out of each and every other girl,
    Out of the flawless, why choose me?

    I wonder why you smile
    And hold my hand so tight.
    Why do you ignore the others who love you
    And instead keep this strange girl in your sight?

    There are so many girls who've loved you;
    There have been many more who've cared.
    But the more and more you've loved me
    The more my mind is lost and scared.

    Heh, now I know I must sound stupid
    To question this simple blessing.
    To despise and hate the subject
    Of the love you are expressing.

    But really why do you love me?
    Aside from God's grace, why did you choose?
    I'll never amount to anything great
    In this game of love I was destined to lose.

    There are others so much better;
    They would make you just as happy all the same.
    Unlike me, they would feel free to acknowledge
    Your love that I resist to name.

    If you left me at this moment
    I promise I won't cry.
    Yet if you stayed, answer this question:
    Tell me the reason why?
