Why

Every time I hear a sound
A door opening or closing
A person talking or footstep
I think it may be you

Why?
Why does my heart race
Whenever I think about you
Why do I have to hide my heart?
Why? Why? Why?

How can you hold such control
Over my feelings and heart
I don’t know what to do
But I have to do something soon

Why?
Why is my heart so confused?
Why do I feel I need to hide
My feelings and love from you
Why? Why? Why?

I should do something soon
Otherwise my heart will break
But I don’t know what to say
I guess I’ll have to hide it for awhile longer

Why?
Why can’t I say how I feel?
Why does it have to hurt me so?
Why do I let my fear control me?
Why can’t I tell you?

When will I say I love you
When will my courage pull through
Why is something easy the hardest thing to do?
Why? Why? Why?
