"Why I Try" lyrics

You're in every corner of my eye
I feel your presence day and night
You don't even know I'm there
Never got to show how much I care

Why, why, why?
Hate the fact I love it

You're the certain something that's got a good lovin'
That's why I try
You're the heartbreaker but a real lovemaker
That's why I try

There's a million things that I can say
But every time I'm near, you turn and walk away
You're the gold, I'm the rust
You're the toast and I'm the crust

Why, why, why?
Hate the fact I love it

You're the certain something that's got a good lovin'
That's why I try
You're a heartbreaker but a real lovemaker
That's why I try

Gotta be a lover, I can't have no other
Or I will lose my mind
You're a devil in a blue dress
Won't you please be mine?
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Lord, won't you tell me
Why, why, Lord why?
Hate the fact I love it

You're the certain something that's got a good lovin'
That's why I try
You're a heartbreaker but a real lovemaker
That's why I try
That's why I try
That's why I try
