WHY DO I BOTHER
Why do I bother to open my heart
when I know that eventually you'll tear it apart
Why do I tell you that I care
when I know you'll never even be here
Why do I allow my heart to feel for you
when the miles between us just make me blue
You might be wondering if I really do care
but you know, it's the truth whether I'm here or I'm there
The reason I care so deeply for you
isn't for looks, it's cause I love the real you
The way that you look at me deep in my eyes
like you're reading my thoughts, and I can't tell you lies
It's the look in your eyes as you're talking with me
the look gives a feeling that seems to run deep
It's the smile on your face and knowing that I put it there
It's all the things you say, and how you make me feel
I miss you when you're gone
and can't wait to talk with you again
You run though my mind, from morning till nights end
And when I think of having just ONE man in my life
for some reason your face comes to my mind.
