Why?
|
I got the news just yesterday
|
They said U up and ran away
|
All because of what somebody said
|
I spent my wedding night alone in bed
|
|
Cuz U left me standing at the altar
|
U left big tears in my eyes (Tears in my eyes)
|
U didn't even stop 2 ask me who, what or where or why
|
|
Ever since the day that we first met
|
Everybody been jealous as they could get (They could get)
|
People sayin' this and sayin' that (Sayin' that)
|
Struck us, struck us out before we even got 2 bat
|
|
Hey, U left me standing at the altar
|
U left big tears in my eyes (Tears in my eyes)
|
U didn't even stop 2 ask me who, what or where or why
|
|
|
How could U do this, how could U leave?
|
When U knew how much U meant 2 me (U meant 2 me)
|
I gave 2 U more than I've given any friend
|
Just 2 have U give it all back in the end
|
|
U left my poor heart broken
|
U left my world in a daze (In a daze)
|
If I could, I'd write a letter 2 U
|
But I don't know what 2 say, I don't know what 2 say
|
|
I got the news just yesterday
|
They said U up and ran away
|
If there's a God way up above
|
One day U'll have 2 answer 2 Him 4 my love
|
|
U left me standing at the altar
|
U left big tears in my eyes
|
U didn't even stop 2 ask me who, what or where or why
|
|
U left my poor heart broken
|
U left my world in a daze (In a daze)
|
If I could, I'd write a letter 2 U
|
But I don't know what 2 say, I don't know what 2 say
|
|
(U left me standing at the altar)
|
U better stop doggin' me baby, yeah
|
I can't take it no more
|
I can't take it no more, baby
|
(U left my poor heart broken)
