What Am I Missing?

Lyrics: Yeah... Here we go again. I fix my hair I dress up right I smell good I look alright So tell me What am I missing? [Verse 1] I walk in I show up I try to talk I open up I give my time I make the effort I think I'm doing everything That I'm supposed to Then comes the same old line "You're great, but it's not the time" "You're great, but I don't know" "Maybe I'm just moving slow" [Background: "Not the time..."] But then I see you A week later With somebody else So what was it? What did I miss? [Pre-Chorus] Was it something that I said? Was it something that I did? If there's something wrong with me Why won't anybody tell me? [Background: "Tell me..."] I keep asking Keep pretending That I don't care But I'm getting tired I'm getting tired Of never getting an answer [Chorus] WHAT AM I MISSING? [Shouted Background: "WHAT?"] Tell me what I'm missing I've tried, I've tried So why am I never the one? WHAT AM I MISSING? [Shouted Ad-Lib: "WHY?"] Don't give me another reason If it's me, then tell me I just wanna know Why am I never enough To make somebody stay? [Verse 2] I changed my clothes I changed my hair I take care of myself I try to be there I listen I care I remember the little things I swear So don't tell me That you just don't know What you want 'Cause somehow You always figure it out When I'm gone Maybe I'm too much Maybe I'm not enough Maybe I'm looking For a reason that doesn't exist But every time I ask the question I get another answer That doesn't make sense [Ad-Lib: "Doesn't make sense!"] And I'm tired Of guessing [Pre-Chorus] Was it something that I said? Was it something that I did? If there's something wrong with me Why won't anybody tell me? [Background: "Tell me!"] Don't say "you're not ready" Then find somebody next week Don't say "you don't know what you want" Then give them everything Just tell me the truth [Chorus] WHAT AM I MISSING? [Shouted Background: "WHAT?"] Tell me what I'm missing I've tried, I've tried So why am I never the one? WHAT AM I MISSING? [Shouted Ad-Lib: "WHY?"] Don't give me another reason If it's me, then tell me I just wanna know Why am I never enough To make somebody stay? [Bridge ] Maybe there is something I just can't see Maybe everybody knows Except me I keep looking in the mirror Trying to find the answer But all I see Is someone getting tired Of asking So tell me... [Whisper: "Tell me..."] WHAT AM I MISSING? [Final Chorus] WHAT AM I MISSING? [Shouted Background: "WHAT AM I MISSING?"] Tell me what I'm missing I've tried, I've tried I'm done pretending I'm fine [Background: "I'm done!"] WHAT AM I MISSING? [Higher Ad-Lib: "WHY?"] If it's me, then tell me If I'm wrong, then show me I don't wanna hear Another excuse tonight WHAT AM I MISSING? [Layered Vocals: "What am I missing?"] Why am I never the one? Why am I never enough? Why does everybody leave Without telling me why? [Outro] Maybe tomorrow I'll stop asking But tonight... I still wanna know What am I missing?
