You ride past me with blinding speed

I'd like to get to know you if you please

But every time I try every time I try

It don't work out and I don't know the reason

Why? But why? Why?

Every time we try to get together

It's like stormy weather

Why? Oh why? Why?

Why is it that when you look at me

I see something in you that you don't see in me?

For every waking hour my admiration towers over you

But hell what can I do?

Why? Why?

Every time we try to get together

It's like stormy weather

Why? Oh why? Why?

I really think I love you

I think I do and it makes me blue cause you

Won't even look my way

Or give me the time of day to explain to you

That I will never tease ya, never leave ya

Always please ya until the moon whoa oh oh

Falls into the sea leaving just you and me to discuss it over tea

I listen intently to the words that you speak

I fantasize that you are speaking only to me

Just like the brightest flower midst of the darkest hour

Can't you see that you're the only one for me

Why? Why?

Every time we try to get together it's like stormy weather

Why? Oh why? Why?
