Why Me Baby? Lyrics


Why, why me, baby?
What did I do, girl, what did I do?
Why, why me, baby?
You broke my heart
Check this out, honeyIt seems like ninety years have gone by
Since the last time I talked to you, you know
I never realized that somethin' so innocent and so sweet
Could make a man feel so much painTimes you'd jump out of my car and I'd chase you till I was out of breath
Go to your job and pick you up, but you never showed up that day
Where were you, baby?
Who was you seein', it's a hurtin' feelin', sureHow could you, why would you abuse my love, sweetheart?
Cursin' me out in front of my friends
And I could never do anything to you
'Cause there was no way I could hurt somethin' I treasured so muchThought I was right on time, but it seems like I was too late
You hurt me, baby
But hey, I'm man enough to admit it
What I wanna know is, why?Why, why me, baby?
Tell me baby

You broke my heart, baby
Check this out
Why?Yo', the way it happened was crazy
We had a argument, I didn't see you for two or three days
And then when I go to the movies to get you off my mind
I see you sittin' there holdin' hands with the next manCaught you on the phone a couple of times
But it was always your cousin
Step off
Just a friendPeople used to tell me, "Ah, she was fakin'''
But I couldn't see it, I was blinded by love
Nothin' was too expensive
No night was too rainyI was always there for you
I did things few call me a fool for doin'
Droppin' your friends off, all that
All I wanted in return was your undivided attention and loveIf my heart had eyes it would cry
You're the center of my world
Life is worth livin' love
Tell 'em what time it isI walk around
Talkin' to myself
Thinkin' everything is nothin'
Am I goin' crazy, baby?I look at the photograph that we once shared
And think about the moment, yeah, yeah
About each other
Remember the poems I used to say to you, girlThere's a right and a wrong way to love somebody
I'll always give all my love to you
I'm on a merry go round and round
Girl, how deep is your love?I've got to go outside in the rain
It's not too late to make it last forever
Why, why, why, why me?, no, no, no, no, no, somethin' natural
Oh, girl, I'll never, never, never, never, never, never understand

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Keith Sweat (born Keith Crier on July 22, 1961 in Harlem, New York), is a popular R&B/soul singer, songwriter, record producer and a major contributor to the New jack swing era. Before becoming a recording artist, Sweat worked for the commodities market in the New York Mercantile Exchange. He sang at nightclubs throughout New York City until he was discovered and offered a recording contract with Elektra Records in 1987.

Make It Last Forever era: 1985-1993

Sweat started his musical career as a member of a well known Harlem band called "Jamilah" in 1975. With the help of Jamilah, Sweat was able to hone his craft as a lead singer by performing regionally throughout the Tri-State area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. The group was started by Larry Peebles, a talented bass player from 116th Street and Lenox Avenue, and included several members who came in and out of the group; among those included was Gregory Ross, a well known Harlem keyboard player who currently lives and works in the Los Angeles area.

On November 25, 1987, Sweat released his debut album Make It Last Forever, which sold three million copies. The biggest hit from this album was "I Want Her" (#1 R&B/#5 Pop), and the title track from the album was hit #2 on the R&B charts.

Sweat continued to chart fairly well with his sophomore album I'll Give All My Love To You, which hit #6 on the Billboard 200 chart, and Keep It Comin debuted in the Top 20 of the album chart.
