What more can I do, there's nothing I haven't tried Still it's so hard for her to notice I've tried hard to be straight There's nothing left I can say If only she would look my way [Chorus:] She don't know me, she don't know She don't see me, she don't care She can't hear me, can't hear Can not help me, she don't want She don't want me like I want her Like I want her got to tell her Got to tell her that I love her That I love her She doesn't even know my name I dream of when she'll be mine I dream of crossing that line And holding her so tender Dreaming it could come true So many things I would do If only you'd give me a chance [Chorus]
