Why? Why?How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
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 begunI tell 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 mouthTell 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
Let's go down to the water's edgeAnd we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out turning inside outTell me, why?
Why? Tell me
Why you don't know?
Why you don't know?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 insteadAnd 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 feelWhy you don't know?
Why you don't know what I feel?
Why you don't knew?
Why don't know what I feel?Why?
