WHY CAN'T YOU SAY I LOVE YOU ©Jim Purtell & Ricki E. Bellos We spend long hours Of every day Texting or talking The summer away You're not one to rush things You like to play cool But I'm wondering Why can't you say I love you I call when you're not home And make silly jokes Do they make you smile Now how would I know I say "love ya" then hang up Sometimes I'm scared to Still wondering Why can't you say I love you I know your fear You've been burned Somebody walked out on you But it's been a year And I'm not her I'll never make you feel like a fool You own my heart You must know by now I know how you feel Just say it out loud I promise I won't laugh Please tell me the truth Stop my wondering Why can't you say I love you Why won't you say I love you Why can't you say I love you
