Promises meant the world to me
|
When they were plans of what our love would bring
|
I couldn't wait for the time to see
|
Your promises became reality
|
But then one day things weren't the same
|
I tried to figure out what changed
|
Next day, you weren't there with me
|
A sense of loneliness I couldn't believe
|
|
You told me that you would always love me
|
How could you break this promise to me, baby?
|
So why did you have to leave?
|
Me with the wrong impression
|
Now all I do is question
|
|
Why
|
Did you have to break my heart? (Break my heart)
|
Why (why, why)
|
Did our love fall apart, boy? (Boy)
|
Why (Why)
|
Did everything seem so right just (Ooh)
|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me
|
Why
|
Did you give up on loving me? (Loving me)
|
Why
|
When you had everything you needed? (thing you needed, yeah)
|
Why
|
How did our love just disappear?
|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me
|
Why
|
|
Can you explain why you would up and leave
|
When all seemed well between you and me
|
Don't understand how you could let this be
|
A life without you being here with me
|
I can't believe that you are gone
|
What could I have possibly done wrong
|
I've never hurt or caused any pain
|
That would make you leave me this way
|
Oh, baby
|
|
You told me that you would always love me
|
How could you break this promise to me, babe?
|
So why did you have to leave?
|
Me with the wrong impression
|
Now all I do is question
|
|
Why (Why, ooh, yeah)
|
Did you have to break my heart?
|
Why
|
Did our love fall apart, boy? (why, did it fall apart boy)
|
Why
|
Did everything seem so right just
|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me
|
Why (why)
|
Did you give up on loving me? (baby)
|
Why (tell me why)
|
When you had everything you needed?
|
Why (how am i)
|
How did our love just disappear? (baby, please tell me)
|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me
|
|
Why
|
Did you have to break my heart? (oo and why!)
|
Why
|
Did our love fall apart, boy? (our love just fall apart, boy)
|
Why
|
Did everything seem so right just (you gotta tell me, gotta tell me)
|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me
|

|
Why (oh why)

|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me (woah, ooh!)
|
Why
|
|
I had given my all to you
|
Without knowing that one day soon (one day soon)
|
You would take away from me (take away)
|
What had meant the world to me (ooo)
|
Didn't all the promises
|
You made to me
|
About our love
|
Mean anything
|
And I can't believe that you and me
|
Are not to be
|
So can you tell me
|
|
Why
|
Did you have to break my heart?
|
Why
|
Did our love fall apart, boy?
|
Why
|
Did everything seem so right just
|
Tell me baby, won't you tell me (oooh, why)
|
Why
|
Did you give up on loving me? (oooh, why)
|
Why
|
When you had everything you needed? (oooh, why)

How did our love just disappear?
|
Tell me, oh baby, won't you tell me
|

Why
|
Did you have to break my heart? (did you have to)

Why
|
Did our love fall apart, boy? (did love fall)

When you had everything you needed? (coz everything)
