Don't you know that you're my reason
For my love, my life, my being
So secure and so, so sure my
Heart would surely die without you
I tried to swallow my pride
But I felt my heart start to tremble inside
Wish I didn't know, 'cause I can't let you go
Tell me
Why
Why when I looked in your eyes
I felt the trust start to die?
Why, oh why?
When I still love you, it's so hard to say goodbye
Mm, yeah (oh!)
How can you tell me it was nothing
'Cause you took away (took away) everything I dreamed in
Just a night and I held you so tight (I held you tight)
When you know you were sleeping in my bed
I tried to swallow my pride
But I felt my heart start to tremble inside
Wish I didn't know, 'cause I can't let you go
Tell me
Why
Why when I looked in your eyes
I felt my heart start to crack?
Why, oh why?
When I saw you with the other girl
Why, oh why?
Why when I looked in your eyes (baby)
I felt my trust start to die?
Why, oh why?
When I still love you, it's so hard to say goodbye
Oh, oh
Mm-ooh
Hey, baby
Whoa
Baby, yeah
Should I quietly leave through the door?
Or maybe pretend the way things were once before
When I met you
I'll never forget you, so
Why
Why when I looked in your eyes
I felt the trust start and die
Why, oh why?
When I still love you, it's so hard to say goodbye
Oh, why
Why did you have, mm (why, why?)
Ooh, why you?
Why did you love me?
What did, what did you love about me?
Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey
(Love) baby
(Mm) ooh, yeah
Why, why, why did you, did you love?
Ooh, ooh
Why, ooh, why?
Why, why did you love, did you love?
