Why

Why don't you take my hand?

Why don't you hold it close?

Why don't you stroke my fingers;

My nails, my thumbs and knuckles?

Why don't you keep me save?

Why don't you hug me to you?

Why don't you hold me close?

Why don't you pat my back?

Comforting me tenderly,

Why don't you keep me warm?

Why don't you watch me sleeping?

Why don't you cover my eyes?

Why don't you dry my eyes?

I need you to take away my sorrow.

Why don't you realize me being torn?

Why don't you call me back?

Why don't you make me stay?

Why don't you feel me right beneath your skin?

I just can't take this anymore.

Why don't you cure my itch?

Why do you make me want you?

Why do I linger on?

Why do you take me over?

You don't know how it hurts.

Why do you addict me to you?

Why don't you make me hate you?

Why don't you even try?

It's all because I need you,

And that's the reason why.
