Tell Me Why

Tell Me Why

Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why
Did I try
I believed in us
(I) gave you what’s mine
Tell me when
Did it end
How’d a love so strong
Break and not bend
If I knew
We weren’t right
I’d give up this fight
Can’t you see
What it’s doing to me

Tell me why
Tell me why
(please) tell me why
(oh) tell me why

Tell me where
Did you go
Did we matter
Or was our love for show
Your wink, that nod and smile
You had all of me
I gave it up in style
If I knew we weren’t right
I’d give up this fight
Can’t you see
What you’re doing to me

Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why, (won’t you) tell me why

I could understand the reason
Walk away, with my head held high
Nothing more to ask of you
I’ll take my love and let it fly
Make some sense of goodbye
No more how, no when where just why
Just tell me why
If I knew we weren’t right
I’d give up the fight
Can’t you see, (can’t you see)
What it’s doing to me

Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
