Why is the meadow greener where you lie?

Why is the sky so blue around you?

And can you tell me

Why everything about you gets me high?

Never a thought of you can pass me by

I feel like singin' when you're the song

But there's no music when you're gone

Oh, why does the mornin' have to mean goodbye?

What if we're still in love tomorrow?

Then would you care to

Try filling every hour of my life

But if my wild, wild bird would rather fly

Can you tell me why?
