Why Not?

Why can’t you see what seems to be
So obvious to me
Through your eyes

Why can’t you tell what I really mean
When I speak
And tell you what you won’t hear
Why don’t you recognize what I do
As something for you
Whatever my actions may be

Why can’t you feel the same way I do
If you could only see
Through my eyes

Why can’t you hear it when my heart screams
Calling out your name
Over and over again

Why can’t you take that first step
Straight into my arms
As I rush into yours?
