Tell Me Why You Love Me Lyrics

Well tell me why you love me. Tell me how you know.
Cause I know it might be so, but I might never know.
I will not believe you 'till you tell me;
If you won't tell me I've got to go.

Cause I can hear 'em laughin; I can hear 'em singin';
I can see 'em dancin' down in San Antonio,
They don't have these questions and, almost without
exception,
They don't care if they don't ever know.

They've got a Texas moon above 'em, Texas man below,
And all they seem to care about is how they feel
tonight,
And I've lived that way before but I can't do it any
more,
Just because it isn't wrong don't make it right.

Tell me why you love me; tell me how you know.
I know it might be so, but I might never know
And I will not believe you 'till you tell me;
If you won't tell me I've got to go.

Well I can tell you why I love you. Yes, I hardly have
to try.
It came to me while I was thinking over your reply, Instead of simply taking me for granted,
You took me by surprise and asked me why.

Cause I used to say I love you; they would say 'I love
you too'
But all it really meant was 'ain't this fun?' 'Yes, I
agree.'
It was just a way of talkin', they might just as well
be walkin'
With the dog instead of coming home to me.

Everything had to be cheerful and I'd really get an
earful
Every time I tried to talk about what mattered most to
me.
It was a major undertaking to keep their hearts from
breaking
Every time I tried to sing in minor key.

So I can tell you why I love you. Yes, I hardly have to
try.
It came to me while I was thinking over your reply,
Instead of simply taking me for granted,
You took me by surprise and asked me why.

You took me by surprise and asked me why.
