Post Don't pass me by.

Written today about my current confusselments. Let me know what you think...?

How can I keep trying,
When you never let me in?
How can I start to make things right,
When there's nowhere to begin?

Don't pass me by,
Don't pass me by,
Don't let me go...

How can you pretend to listen,
To every word I say?
How can you forget it all,
The next day?

Don't pass me by,
Don't pass me by,
Don't let me go...

How can we look,
Into each others eyes?
How can we take,
All each others lies?

Don't pass me by,
Don't pass me by,
Don't let me go...

How can I say you're mine,
When you never say I'm yours?
How can I say I don't need you,
When I'm in love with all your flaws?

Don't pass me by,
Don't pass me by,
Don't let me go...

How can you not know,
The way I feel?
How can you go on,
Like this isn't real?

Don't pass me by,
Don't pass me by,
Don't let me go...

How could we think,
We should be apart?
How could we think,
We don't need each others heart?

You're passing me by,
You're letting me go,
You're passing me by,
You're letting me go.

Keep me together.

You repeat the line

"Don't pass me by,
Don't pass me by,
Don't let me go..."

far too much. It loses its power.

Also, the rhyming seems trite. Don't stop writing by any means, but put some variance into it.

I disagree. I think it has soul and providing its repeated with increasing feeling it can only add to the song. After all the person in the song is pleading desperately.
