Story Behind The Song
I wrote "Baby, I Don't Know Why" originally for a "Getting Your Guitar Sound" class assignment at berkleemusic.com. It a class for learning how to get your own personal guitar sound and to copy famous guitar sounds. I used many of the assignments to write new music with and this one turned out great. The lyrics are about being in love and discovering that you love someone out of the blue.

Lyrics
Baby, I don't know why
You cry
Every night over me
Baby, don't you understand
I'm your man
And that's the way it should be
'Cause deep in the night
When I'm holdin' you tight
It all seems like a dream
I lose control
And I just don't know
How I'm supposed to be
But I know
I love you
Yes I do
I, can't explain
How this feeling inside me remains
But you touched my heart
And left me out of the dark
And now
I love you
Yes I do
I, don't know
If you can see it in me
But I know
I love you
Yes I do
Love you
