(Why, why me, baby) Girl, I need to know why
|
(Why me, baby) What did I do, girl, what did I do
|
(Why, why me, baby)
|
You broke my heart
|
|
Check this out, honey
|
It seems like 99 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 pain
|
Times 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¡¯, sugar
|
How 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 much
|
Thought 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 why, baby, tell me why}
|
(Why, why me, baby) Tell me, baby
|
(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 man
|
Caught you on the phone a couple of times, but it was always your cousin
|
Step off, just a friend
|
People used to tell me, ¡°L, she was fakin¡¯¡±
|
But I couldn¡¯t see it, I was blinded by love
|
Nothin¡¯ was too expensive
|
No night was too rainy
|
I 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 love
|
If my heart had eyes it would cry
|
You¡¯re the center of my world
|
Life is worth livin¡¯ love
|
Tell me why
|
|
(Why, why me, baby) Why would you do it to me, baby, yeah, yeah
|
(Why, why me, baby) You hurt me so bad when you left me, baby
|
(Why, why me, baby)
|
You broke my...heart, baby {Tell ¡®em what time it is, Keith}
|
(Why) {Tell ¡®em what time it is}
|
|
I 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, girl
|
|
There¡¯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, baby, no, baby, no, baby, no, baby, no, baby
|
No, no, no, no, no
|
Somethin¡¯ natural
|
Ooh, do you know, do you know how much I love you
|
You were my woman and I was your man
|
Oh, girl, I¡¯ll never, never, never, never, never, never understand
|
