Why Do I Have To... (Make You Say You Love Me)

Jimmy Webb

[Verse 1]
I always find that you speak your mind
You're sweet and kind as you can be
I know you're tryin' to be open with me
But I've never heard you say the word
Has it occurred to you at all?
You call ten times a day but just to chat
(What's goin', baby?)
You never talk about that

[Chorus]
Why do I have to make you say you love me?
(Make you say you love me)
Why do you leave me hangin' in midair?
You say you never lie
But if it's true then why (why)
Do I have to make you say you love me?
Why do I have to take what I can get from you
(Take what I can get from you)
When I've given far more than my share?
You tease me 'til I ache
It hurts for heaven's sake
What will it take to make you say you love me?

[Verse 2]
So what's my fate, would you set me straight?
Please don't frustrate me even more
I get so tense I almost come unstrung
"(What's the matter, now, baby?)
Cat got your tongue?"

[Chorus]
Why do I have to make you say you love me?
(Make you say you love me)
Why do you leave me hangin' in midair?
You say you never lie
But if it's true then why (why)
Do I have to make you say you love me?
Why do I have to take what I can get from you
(Take what I can get from you)
When I've given far more than my share?
You tease me 'til I ache
It hurts for heaven's sake
What will it take to make you say you love me?

[Outro]
You're not playing fair
(Make you say you love me, ooh)
You say you never lie
But if it's true then why (why)
Why do I have to make you say you love me?
Why do I have to take what I can get from you
(Take what I can get from you)
When I've given far more than my share?
You tease me 'til I ache
It hurts for heaven's sake
What will it take to make you say you love me?
