I've been drivin' around, thinkin' about
Why I got so quiet, when you asked last night,
Is this goin' anywhere, and if it ain't do I even care at all?
What is it about me that just shuts down
The feelings are all there, but the words just won't come out

I don't know why I don't
Stop everything, drop everything and tell you
I need you so
What's stoppin' me I don't know
I don't know why I can't
If I really need you I'm crazy
If I don't take you in my arms and never let you go
I don't know why I don't

Nothing God's ever made, makes me feel the way
That I always do, when I'm holdin' you
And that little word of love has been
On the tip of my tongue a thousand times
What is it about me that gets so scared
To let somebody in, to show you how much I care

I don't know why I don't
Stop everything, drop everything and tell you
I need you so
What's stoppin' me I don't know
I don't know why I can't
If I really need you I'm crazy
If I don't take you in my arms and never let you go
I don't know why I don't

Just come on out and say it
I know that you've been waiting so long

And I don't know why I don't
Just stop everything, drop everything and tell you
I need you so
What's stoppin' me I don't know
I don't know why I can't
If I really need you I'm crazy
If I don't take you in my arms and never let you go
I don't know why I don't
Say I love you
Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Come here baby
