Why

Lyrics

Why...
 Why...
 How many times do I have to try to tell you
 That I'm sorry for the things I've done, ooh. ooh, ooh
 But when I start to try to tell you
 That's when you have to tell me
 Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun
 I told myself too many times
 Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
 That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
 That keep on falling from your mouth
 Falling from your mouth
 Falling from your mouth
 Tell me
 Why...
 ♪
 Why...
 
 I may be mad
 I may be blind
 I may be viciously unkind
 But I can still read what you're thinking
 ♪
 And I've heard is said too many times
 That you'd be better off
 Besides...
 Why can't you see this boat is sinking
 (this boat is sinking this boat is sinking)
 Let's go down to the water's edge
 And we can cast away those doubts
 Some things are better left unsaid
 But they still turn me inside out
 Turning inside out, turning inside out
 Tell me
 Why...
 Tell me
 Why...
 This is the book I never read
 These are the words I never said
 This is the path I'll never tread
 These are the dreams I'll dream instead
 This is the joy that's seldom spread
 These are the tears...
 The tears we shed
 This is the fear
 This is the dread
 These are the contents of my head
 And these are the years that we have spent
 And this is what they represent
 And this is how I feel
 Do you know how I feel?
 'Cause i don't think you know how I feel
 I don't think you know what I feel
 ♪
 I don't think you know what I feel
 You don't know what I feel
