I can't seem to make you mine, oh
Kissin' around all the town, oh
You fly around like a bee, oh
Hurtin' everything you see

I try everything I know, oh
To make you wanna love me so, oh
The only thing you do, oh
Is try to put the hurt on me

Can't you see what you're doin' to me
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath and each step I take
I'm more in love with you

I can't go on like this, oh
A little bit of love and not one kiss, oh
I gotta have your love every day, yeah
One that will build, will stay, oh

I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine

(Instrumental Break)

I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine, oh
Come back, baby, 'cause I'm all alone
Come back, darlin', 'cause I need your love
Come back, 'cause I wanna love ya
Girl, I wanna love ya

I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine
