That Is Why

(album: Can't Get Enough - 1981)

How many times must I run to you
Baby, just to prove that my love is true
How many times must I feel the pain
Must we start all over again?
One day you'll open your eyes
And then you're gonna realize
That my coming 'round to you
Is 'cause I want our love to last

Oh, that is why, my love, that's why
I'll be calling 'round to you, my love
Tonight, tonight
That is why, my love, that's why
I'll be calling 'round to you, my love
Tonight, tonight

Winters may come and may go
But my love remains as pure as the snow
If I turn up late for a date
Once in a thousand times you would wait
Oh, how I wish I could please you
As much as you may want me to
But by coming 'round to you
I hope that our love would last

Oh, that is why, my love, that's why
I'll be calling 'round to you, my love
Tonight, tonight
That is why, my love, that's why
I'll be calling 'round to you, my love
Tonight, tonight

Love and attention, that is why
I'm back with you tonight, that is why
I miss your love and attention, that is why
I'm back with you tonight, that is why
I miss your love and attention, that is why
I'm back with you tonight, that is why

Oh, oh...

Winters may come and go
But my love remains as pure as the snow
If I turn up late for a date
Once in a thousand times you would wait
Oh, I wish that I could please you
As much as you may want me to
But by coming 'round to you
I hope that our love would last

Oh, that is why, my love, that's why
I'll be calling 'round to you, my love
Tonight, tonight
That is why, my love, that's why
I'll be calling 'round to you, my love
Tonight, tonight

Love and attention, that is why
I'm back with you tonight, that is why
I miss your love and attention, that is why
I'm back with you tonight, that is why...
