Did think of the days that we used to cry Laughing and talking only you and I Those memories as I held your hand Me thinking I was your only man Why was I so blind I could not see I wasn't for you, you wasn't for me What did I do that you neglected me? You know I was there when you needed me But now I see that we can never be 'Cause' you think of me differently I never thought my heart'd be torn in two Me thinking you loved me Why can't you be mine? (Why can't you be mine?) I thought we were more than just a friend Why can't you be mine? My love for you was till the end I spent my days home thinking what went wrong Why don't you see what I'm trying to show That I would love to be your man Please tell me why, why I can't I only wish that you would understand That I can be better than any man 'Cause' I know about you more than anyone else That's why I want you all for myself But now I see that we can never be 'Cause' you think of me differently I never thought my heart'd be torn in two Me thinking you loved me Why can't you be mine? (Why can't you be mine?) I thought we were more than just a friend Why can't you be mine? My love for you was till the end But now I see that we can never be 'Cause' you think of me differently I never thought my heart'd be torn in two Me thinking you loved me Why can't you be mine? (Why can't you be mine?) I thought we were more than just a friend Why can't you be mine? My love for you was till the end Why can't you be mine? (Why can't you be mine?) I thought we were more than just a friend Why can't you be mine? My love for you was till the end
