You came into my life, I was lost before you came
I was so alone, I never knew that you felt the same

Cause you're beautiful I don't deserve a girl like you
I'm scared because I know, what this love's comin to
Cause everytime I put my love up on a string
Another tragic thing, breaks my heart again

And I say why
I say why
Do you have to go away
Could you wait another day?

And I say why
And I ask why
Cause I'm lonely without you
And I don't know what to do
And I say why...

Was it me, and what I wanted you to be
I'm sorry, don't ever change a thing
Cause I love you, and I always will
I'll prove my love to you, and sing it everyday

And I say why
I say why
Do you have to go away
Could you wait another day?

And I say why
And I ask why
Cause I'm lonely without you
And I don't know what to do
And I say

Let's run away
Start a new life
Begin another day
Don't say
You don't love me anymore
Cause you'll always be deep in my heart

And I say why
I say why
Do you have to go away
Could you wait another day?

And I say why
And I ask why
Cause I'm lonely without you
And I don't know what to do

And I say why
And I ask why
I don't know why
Please tell me why

Please tell me why
Why'd you go?
I don't deserve this
I'm asking why
