Lyrics
Tell Me Why c
By Mark Norwood & Darrell Devaurs
I woke up so cold
No feeling this morning
The message you left me
It came without warning
I dread this song
I don?t want to write it
But its pourin? out now and I just can?t fight it
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said?
Tell me what scared you, chased you from our bed
I know I?m not easy and if you must say ?goodbye?
I won?t drag you back, I?ll just silently die
Tell me why, baby, why?
Tell me now, baby, please
Desperate you see, baby, down on my knees
Tell me why
Tell me why
I can see in your eyes
That you?re already gone
Fly back in time and you?ll see this is wrong
We were perfect together, or was it just me
Did I dream this alone, wake me up this can?t be.
I?ve got my pride, but I don?t want it now
It?s all on the line, I must reach you somehow
Love isn?t easy, sometimes you must fight
Come back inside, babe, this just isn?t right
Tell me why, baby, why?
Tell me now, baby, please
Desperate you see, baby, down on my knees
Tell me why
Tell me why
We can face anything given the chance
Leaving is easy
It takes courage to dance.
(Instrumental break)
Tell me why, baby, why?
Tell me now, baby, please
Desperate you see, baby, down on my knees
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why, baby, why?
Tell me now, baby, please
Desperate you see, baby, down on my knees
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
