Why can’t I have you?
Are you too far away?
Is it the distance I keep?
Or the words I don’t say?

All these days I’ve run like a devil gone wild
Only to end helpless like a newborn child

Why can’t I have you tonight?
Why can’t I have you tonight?
Why can’t I have you?

Why can’t I have you?
Now the day has drawn
Is it the love you require
Or the love I have shown?

All these nights I'm freed beneath the light of the moon
Just to be held hostage with the thoughts of you

Why can’t I have you tonight?
Why can’t I have you tonight?
Why can’t I have you?

I talk aloud in this empty room
I’m lost but found when it comes to you

Why can’t I have you tonight?
Why can’t I have you tonight?
Why can’t I have you?

Why can’t I have you?

Why can’t I have you?
