Verse 1
I can see it in your eyes
The way you reach, the way you try
I feel your love, it feels so true
But still, I can’t shake this shade of blue
Pre-Chorus
I really want you, I really do
And I see the way you want me too
But even when I feel it, why does it seem
Like I’m never enough for your dream
Chorus
Why does it feel
Like love isn’t here to stay?
(Not here to stay)
It’s like it’s slipping
Away… (away)
No matter what I say
Or how I feel, or what I see
I still feel afraid
Why does it feel
Like it’s not enough today?
Verse 2
Your words are soft, your touch is near,
Yet something inside just
whispers fear.
I want to trust, want to believe,
But doubt clings tight, won’t let me leave.
(won’t let me leave.)
Pre-Chorus
I want to reach you, I really do
And I feel you reaching back too
But even when your love is clear
I can’t shake the doubt that’s always near
Oooooh
Chorus
Ooooooo
Why does it feel
Like love isn’t here to stay?
(Not here to stay)
It’s like it’s slipping
Away… (away)
No matter what I say
Or how I feel, or what I see
I still feel afraid
Why does it feel
Like it’s not enough today?
Bridge
Maybe it’s me, maybe it’s time,
Maybe this love is yours and mine.
But in the quiet, I still hear
The echo of a question, always near:
Chorus (Outro)
Why does it feel
Like love isn’t here to stay?
(Not here to stay)
It’s like it’s slipping
Away… (away)
No matter what I say
Or how I feel, or what I see
I still feel afraid
Why does it feel
Like it’s not enough today?
(not enough today)
