Tell me why we're never more than strangers

Tell me why you never let it show

* but when you're close to me

And whisper, I need you

In the cold mornin' light

**try me, oh take me for a little while

Before it's over and you leave me with just a smile

Try me, oh let me be the one

You say it's over

But for me it had just begun

Tell me why we seem no more than strangers

Tell me why the feelin' never goes

* repeat

** repeat
