Why didn't I tell you I loved you
When the time was right
Why didn't I just come out and say it
Before we said goodnight
Girl, when you're next to me
Don't know what comes over me
Don't know why I'm suddenly so shy
And why didn't I
Reach out with these lovin' hands
(Oh, yeah)
Touch you when I had the chance
Lay you on the moonlit sand
And kiss you all over
Why didn't I
Tell you what you mean to me
(Oh, yeah)
Hold you close, so tenderly
Whisper, baby, stay with me
Forever and ever
Why didn't I
(Why)
You were beautiful and your sweet perfume
Took my breath away, oh, yes, it did
But all the things that I felt inside
Were so hard to say, oh...
You were so close that night
The mood and the time were right
But I let the moment pass me by
And why didn't I
Reach out with these lovin' hands
(Reach out, oh, yeah)
Touch you when I had the chance
Lay you on the moonlit sand
And kiss you all over
Why didn't I
Tell you what you mean to me
(Ooh, yeah)
Hold you close, so tenderly
(Hold you, hold you close)
Whisper, baby, stay with me
Forever and ever, yeah
Ooh, why, oh, why can't I trust my heart
When it tells me that you want me
To take you in my arms, baby
Why, oh, why can't I trust what I feel
When I know deep inside
It's the only thing that's real
Why didn't I
Reach out with these lovin' hands
(Reach out, oh...)
Touch you when I had the chance
Lay you on the moonlit sand
And kiss you all over
Why didn't I
Tell you what you mean to me
(Oh, yeah)
Hold you close, so tenderly
(Hold you close to me)
Whisper, baby, stay with me
Forever and ever
Why didn't I, hey
Reach out with these lovin' hands
Touch you when I had the chance
(I wanna touch you, baby)
Lay you on the moonlit sand
And kiss you all over, why
Tell you what you mean to me
(Oh, yeah)
Hold you close, so tenderly
Whisper, baby, stay with me
Forever and ever
Why, why, why didn't I
Reach out with these lovin' hands
Touch you when I had the chance
(Hold you close to me)
Lay you on the moonlit sand
And kiss you all over
Tell you what you mean to me
Hold you close, so tenderly
Whisper, baby, stay with me
Forever and ever...
