Why Songtext
von David Nail

The rain outside is falling
Water fills the streets
And the memories are calling
Out to me

Oh they′re calling out to me

You pulled out the driveway
Left with no goodbye
I could hear you crying as you drove away
Asking why

Once again you left asking why

I do the things I do
Why I say the things I say
And why I tell you that I love you
But I treat you this way
Oh if I had the answers
Heaven knows we'd never fuss or fight
But I don′t know why


Well I'd never ever hit you
'Cause it ain′t how I was raised
But I do a lot of screaming
You′re to blame

Oh I'm always screaming you′re to blame

For the things I do
For the things I say
And why I tell you that I love you
But I treat you this way
Oh if I had the answers
Heaven knows we'd never fuss or fight
But I don′t know why

You'd think by now I′d realize that
Next time might just be the last time
You'd think by now I'd look for help that I′d want some help
Before you find somebody else

Why′d I do the things I do
Why'd I say the things I say
Why do I tell you that I love you
But I treat you this way
Oh if I had the answers
Heaven knows we′d never fuss or fight
But I don't know why


The rain outside is falling
Water fills the streets
As I introduce myself in a room full of strangers
With problems just like me
