You know, I'm trying so hard

to pull you in.

But you keep lookin away,

here we go again.

I wanna be with you,

but I have a choice.

I wanna be with you,

listen to my voice.

I've been working all day,

need a place, my baby, I can stay.

And when I call you up,

you got nothin to say.

And reachin deep inside,

trying to share my life,

but when you close your heart,

feels like the twist of a knife.

Don't make me come right out and say it,

'cause you know that's not my style.

Why don't you walk right over here

and try to make me smile?

Sometime I see that pain

and deep in you

and all them silly things

we make each other do.

And now I realize,

'cause I been so blue...

And now I realize,

it's been the same with you

Don't make me come right out and say it,

'cause you know that's not my style.

Why don't you walk right over here

and try to make me smile?
