Why don't you believe?


Why don’t you believe what I say
How can you be so convinced that my love
is just gonna blow away
and if you can’t trust me then just tell me the way
I can make you forget your doubts
So you know my loyalty will stay

How do I convince you
That I can’t resist you
And that I miss you
Every second we’re apart
But I can’t keep trying
If you’re convinced I’m lying
Because I’m just dying
That I haven’t gotten in your heart

How can I say things differently
To express my faith in some other way
that will help you believe
I know my past isn’t friendly
But there must come a point where
you can’t keep holding it against me

How do I explain this
And still keep it painless
I know that I’m not blameless
But I deserve to have your trust
And if what I need now
Can’t be given somehow
Then I don’t know how
There can continue to be an “us”
