Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad Songtext
von Bettye LaVette

I gotta find a way
To get me back to yesterday
How could I ever hope to forget you?
Won′t you show me a place
Where I can hide my lonely face?
I knew you'd break my heart if I let you
Like a moth to a flame
Like a song without a name
Never been the same since I met you

Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?

Like a bird on the wing
I need a brand-new song to sing
I can′t keep on singing about you
I'm beginning to see
What a fool you've made of me
I might have to break the law when I catch you


Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?

You keep on running away
I′ve got a better game to play
And try to go on living without you
I′m beginning to see
What a doggone fool you made of me
I might have to break the law if I catch you

Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?

Why does love (why, why, why, why?)
Why does love have to be so sad?
Be so sad
Why does love have to be so sad? (Why, why, why, why?)
Find me a place I can try to hide my lonely face
Why? (Why, why?)
Why? (Why, why?)


Like a moth to a flame, I got to find me a whole new song to sing
Why? (Why, why?)
Why? (Why, why?)
Why does love have to be so sad?
Why does love have to be so sad?
