Lyrics Why Can't I Come to You - Patty Waters

Why Can't I Come to You

Why can’t I come to you?
Take a chance that you might understand
Why can’t I talk to you?
Say the words that would make everything clear
About the way I feel toward you
It’s such a strong emotion
So new to me
About the way I feel inside
It must be love
It must be
Love
But I don’t have the strength
Within myself, to take a chance
That you might scorn me
So I must wait, with hopeful heart
For you to look at me, once more
And see your woman
You could always love
And with nothing more than feelings
Know how very much she needs you
