[Verse 1]
After all of this time
Your face ingrained in my head
Wish it would fade away
And it feels like a crime
If I look at someone else instead
I can't look away
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Was it because I didn’t do enough
To make you think of me that way
Was I not special like I hoped I was
For you to look at me
[Chorus]
So why can’t you see?
That this is more than just a friendship to me
There is no yes because of what you believe
I was hoping you would save a spot for me
So why can’t you see?
[Verse 2]
You were my first love and that’s
Not something that I can ever get back
(Evеr get back)
And your beliefs kеpt us from
Being one but now we are none
(We are none)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Was it because I wasn’t good enough
It was already hard to keep on acting tough
Were my looks not good or personality
Enough for you to look at me
[Chorus]
So why can’t you see?
That this is more than just a friendship to me
There is no yes because of what you believe
I was hoping you would save a spot for me
So, why can’t you see?
[Bridge]
That together we would win at life
I will always let you know
(I will always let you know)
That together we would be fine
I will never let you go
(I will never let you go)
[Chorus]
So why can’t you see?
That this is more than just a friendship to me
There is no yes because of what you believe
I was hoping you would save a spot for me
So why can’t you see?
[Outro]
Why?
(That together we could win at life)
Why?
(Can't you see?)
Why?
(That together we would be fine)
Why?
Can’t you see?
