Description
This Roy Orbison-esque ditty is about a love gone bad through infidelity (it has nothing to do with my sweetheart btw) yet the glimmer of hope lies in the one question: Why?
Lyrics
I know who, and I know when, And I know how long, it's been, And I know where you're going, So baby please don't lie, but the only thing I don't know is why, The only thing I don't know is why, The only thing I don't know is why, I know true love and what it takes, I know how, the heart breaks, I know it's gonna hurt more, when I say goodbye, The only thing I don't know is why, Why, don't tell me some fabricated lie, It's gonna a lot to justify, 'Cuz I know what made a good love shrivel up and die, But the only thing I don't know is why, Why, don't think that you can just stand there and cry, And don't expect my hand to wipe them dry, I know that I deserve a genuine reply, 'Cuz the only thing I don't know is why, I know there's more love out there, And I know I've had my share, I know I've still got something inside for you inside I can't deny, And the only thing I don't know, yeah, the only thing I don't know, is why.
