***why Can'T You See?
Why can't you see
He's not the one for you?
Don't you realize how happy you'd be
Once you say your love is through?
He's not worth your time
He only wants one thing
You need a real relationship
Not just a little fling
When he's with other girls
To you, he doesn't say a word
You need to have your say
And make sure your voice is heard
He never gives in
You always compromise
He says that he loves you
But you don't see it in his eyes
If he only knew
How hard you try
Yet he always seems to do
The things that make you cry
You always go to him
He never comes to you
He doesn't understand
Oh, if he only knew
He calls you names
Things you know you're not
Why should you even care
About what he thought?
I say all these things
To get her to see
But alas, all "these things"
Are happening to me
