why do you let yourself wander
aimlessly within four walls
why don't you let me enter
why can't you let me in

you got that sweet smile in the morning in the midst of the test tubes
you are all perky and happy but you can't hide those swollen eyes
you are sad i know it but i don't know why

why single but unavailable
give me an explanation, why
why don't you let me enter
why can't you let me in

i want to be by your side away from labs and microscopes
i want to get to know you and banish those nightime tears
i wish i knew.. who or what or how
