WHY?

WHY?


I am not sure of your love,
But in love I do cry.
Though you don’t throw me a glance,
I love, I don’t know why.

In nights I keep awake and
Toss in bed as I lie.
For me you don’t lose a wink.
I love, I don’t know why.

In order to win your heart,
I cannot harder try.
You make my heart bleed and yet
I love, I don’t know why.

You are ever in my thoughts,
But when your heart I pry,
I don’t find myself there but
I love, I don’t know why.

Have a peep inside my eyes,
To you they never lie.
Your are full of deceit, still
I love, I don’t know why.
