I never understand what you do to me,
But I'll never get right down on bended knee,
But I cry and I cry and I cry

I don't think you know you've done me wrong,
But still I've been in love now oh so long
But I try and I try and I try,
and you don't believe me

I give you my house, my heart, my home,
When I'm gone you're not alone
You never hear a thing I say,
And it happens every day

Why, why, why, why, why, why are you never home ?
While I, I, I, I, I, sit here by the phone
'Cause I try and I try and I try,
and you don't believe me

Oh lord, I give you my house, my heart, my home,
When I'm gone you're not alone
You never hear a thing I say,
And it happens every day

Why, why, why, why, why, why are you never home ?
While I, I, I, I, I, sit here by the phone
'Cause I try and I try and I try,
and you don't believe me
Well I try and I try and I try,
and you don't believe me
Well I try and I try and I try,
and you don't believe me
