Lyrics

I don't know why The sky is so blue And I don't know why I'm so in love with you But if there were no music Then I would not get through And I don't know why I know these things, but I do I don't know why But somewhere dreams come true (yeah) And I don't know where But there will be a place for you And every time you look that way I would lay down my life for you I don't know why I know these things, but I do I don't know why But some are going to make you cry And I don't know how But I will get you by, I will try They're not trying to cause you pain They're just afraid of loving you I don't know why I know these things, but I do I don't know why The trees grow so tall And I don't know why I don't know anything at all But if there were no music Then I would not get through I don't know why I know these things, but I do I don't know why I know these things, but I do
