ANY REASON TO SAY NO


©2014 Wayne Box Miller

I gave the best I had
Better than you ever had
But it doesn’t seem to be good enough

I’ve proven my love is true
Been right not wrong for you
So tell me why you’re giving up

It doesn’t make sense
And you can’t explain
I give you what you want
But you still walk away
And it makes me realize
You’ll say stop when I say go
When it comes to loving me
You’ll use any reason, to say no

In the beginning
I had what you needed
Everything that was hard to find

Now you’re not impressed
After I gave you my best
Now I’m not one of a kind

It doesn’t add up
And I can’t understand
I give what you want
But you won’t hold my hand
And it makes me realize
You want to stay cold
When it comes to loving me
You’ll use any reason to say no

What changed besides the weather?
Why can’t we be together?
It takes work to make love last
I’ve given but you’ve stopped
She loved me but loves me not
Once I leave there’s not coming back
    
It doesn’t make sense
And you can’t explain
I give you what you want
But you still walk away
And it makes me realize
You’ll say stop when I say go
When it comes to loving me
You’ll use any reason, to say no


THINGS WE USE TO DO


©2014 Wayne Box Miller

I wish I could hit rewind
Turn back the hands of time
To the day we first met

Capture the look in your eyes
The one perfectly matching mine
And the moment love was set

Because I can’t find it, I’m in need
And it’s a fact; it’s killing you and me
And I just want to go back in time
And do: Things we use to do

Somewhere we got off track
Hate to admit that fact
Our love’s a runaway train

So let’s get back on board
Love’s not keeping score
What we had, I need again

I know what’s missing, it’s hard to find
I think you know lady; you’re one of a kind
And I just want to try, try
And do: Things we use to do

It all made sense; it all just fit
We knew the meaning of love
Didn’t know the meaning of quit
Somewhere we were interrupted
But we have to try again
And do the things we use to do
I miss my lover and my friend

Because I can’t find it, and I’m in need
And it’s a fact; it’s killing you and me
And I just want to go back in time
And do: Things we use to do
