The Dave Clark Five
 (Dave Clark / Mike Smith)

 I don't know why she won't love me
 Lord, please tell me why
 Maybe it's that she don't love me
 Don't count on it please, she's shy

 If she's shy then I'll understand
 I'll make the first move and hold her hand
 But if I'm wrong then I'll be mad
 La-da-da-da-da

 I've been tryin' oh so hard
 But she don't seem to notice
 I sit next to her in class
 But she can't see my motive

 Do you think she has a boy
 If she has then I'm done
 'Cause if he catches me with her
 I think I'll have to run

 If she's passive she'll understand
 I'll value my love but not in her hands
 But if I'm wrong then I'll be mad
 La-da-da-da-da
 La-da-da-da-da
 La-da-da-da-da
