Analysis of She Doesn't Know



I love her but she doesn't know
I need her but she doesn't know
How do I make her believe
How Come she cannot perceive
What is it that I've done wrong
Why can't she hear my song
I've told her again and again
Perhaps she just doesn't understand
Is it because I do not know
Could it be that she doesn't know
She doesn't know
