Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't you know that you're my reason
For my love, my life, my being?
So secure and so, so sure my
Heart would surely die without you
[PreChorus]
I tried to swallow my pride
But I felt my heart start to tremble inside
Wish I didn't know, 'cause I can't let you go
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why when I looked in your eyes, baby
I felt the trust start to die?
Why, oh, why, yeah
When I still love you
It's so hard to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Yeah
How can you tell me it was nothing?
'Cause you took away everything I dreamed in
Just a night, and I held you so tight
When you know you were sleeping in my bed
[PreChorus]
I tried to swallow my pride
But I felt my heart start to tremble inside
Wish I didn't know, 'cause I can't let you go
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why when I look in your eyes, baby
I felt my heart start to cry?
Why, why, why?
When I saw you with the other girl
[Chorus]
Why, oh, why
Why when I looked in your eyes, baby
'Cause I felt the trust start to die
Why, oh, why
When I still love you
It's so hard to say goodbye
[Bridge]
Hey, hey, hey, yeah
Why, whoa
Baby, yeah
[Bridge]
Should I quietly leave through the door? Yeah
Or maybe pretend the way things were once?
Before when I met you
I'll never forget you, so
[Chorus]
Why, oh, why, oh, why
Why when I looked in your eyes, yeah
I felt the trust start to die?
Ooh, why, oh, why, baby, why
When I still love you
It's so hard to say goodbye
Why, why, yeah
Do you cry?
[Outro]
Bye-bye, goodbye, goodbye
Why did you lie, babe?
I wanted, wanted you to love me, but no
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Baby
Ooh, yeah, yeah
Why did you lie?
Why, oh, why
Did you, did you lie?
Bye, bye, bye
Why, oh, why
Did you lie?
Did you, did you lie?
Why, oh, oh, why, why, why
