Why Can’t I Lyrics

Why can't I just simply say it?

I have been outside

And all alone

Why can't I just simply play it?

It's all for you

Not just for show

Why can't I just simply weigh it?

Against the loss

Not being home

It's you

The one I miss

When I'm not inside my head

The one who calls me back to bed

And pulls me back

From

Missing

Why won't I just simply say it?

I've been adrift,

All on my own?

Why can't I just simply play it?

To the neighbor's cat

Or into the phone?

It's you

The one I miss

When I'm not inside my head

The one who calls me back to bed

And pulls me back

From

Missing

I wrote this song,

It's about us together

Or some such thing

My mind is blank,

Talk about the weather

For news it brings

I wrote this song,

It's about us together

Or some such thing

I lose my grip,

Put down by a feather

For what love brings

Why won't I just simply say it?

I've been adrift

All on my own

Why can't I just simply play it?

To your sweet face

Have I turned to stone?

It's you

The one I miss

When I'm not inside my head

The one who calls me back to bed

And pulls me back

From

Missing

It's you

The one I miss

When I'm not inside my head

The one who calls me back to bed

And pulls me back

From

Missing
