Why Can't I Come to You - Patty Waters

Why can’t I come to you?

Take a chance that you might understand

Why can’t I talk to you?

Say the words that would make everything clear

About the way I feel toward you

It’s such a strong emotion

So new to me

About the way I feel inside

It must be love

It must be

Love

But I don’t have the strength

Within myself, to take a chance

That you might scorn me

So I must wait, with hopeful heart

For you to look at me, once more

And see your woman

You could always love

And with nothing more than feelings

Know how very much she needs you
