Could you be holding out for something more

maybe I'm not what you're looking for

but I'll be waiting if you change your mind

everybody tells me it's just a waste of time

and if I give up hope

well then I might as well lay down and die

and that's why I'm asking

- Chorus -

why (do) you always push me away

cuz I try to do the best I can for you

so I'm asking

why (do) you always push me away

cuz I try to do the best I can for you

seems like I've known you forever

but still you don't know I'm alive

why can't we just be together

cuz it seems the world is made for you and I

and if I give up hope

well then I might as well lay down and die

and that's why I'm asking

- Chorus -

why (do) you always push me away

cuz I try to do the best I can for you

so I'm asking

why (do) you always push me away

cuz I try to do the best I can for you

I just called cuz I was thinking about you (x2)

you got to let me know if I'm getting through

and you know that I'm only just a step away from crazy

this is what you do to me
