Three Words
Why can't you say those words
The ones I so long to hear?
Do those words scare you
Fill your mind with fear?
They're only three simple words
Spoken every single day
Why do you find them
So very hard to say?
Do you know how much it hurts
When I look you in the eye
And ask you to say them:
When I beg of you to try?
Your refusal to admit to me
That you feel the same way
Makes it harder to understand
Why you just won't say
What you feel in your heart
And what I see on your face
How would you feel, really
If you were in my place?
Why do you continue to do this;
Why do you refuse say
Those three simple, magic words
And make my pain go away?
I'm pleading and I am begging
Because you know what to do:
Just say those words I long to hear
The ones that go 'I Love You'.
