Why

Why am I hungry?
I’m hungry for your love
There’s only one conclusion
You just don’t give enough

Why am I thirsty?
Thirsty for your love
I need to take communion
Come on and fill my empty cup

Why do you thrill me?
Thrill me with your smile
I know I should resist you
But I’m not into self-denial

Why do you please me?
Please me with your style
I may have to insist you
Come on and make it worth my while

Why do you tease me?
Teasing’s good for some
I know those games your playing
But I won’t play kiss and run

Why won’t you free me?
Free me, free me honey bun
I’ve done my share of praying
Should we end what we’ve begun

Do you do you do you
Still want me
Do you do you hear what I say
Is there any way that I can stay here
In your arms or should I go all alone on my way

I had made a promise to myself to never give it all away
But then you came along and changed my song
So easily it makes me feel so afraid
