Why Me? Songtext
von Irene Cara

Life felt so right, I was drowned in your light
With the world so in tune
′Till you made me out for a fool

Left with nothing to do, can't forget about you
With my heart in my hands
Pack my bags, leave the memories with you

You gave me nothing but misery
I found so much more
You used me oh so helplessly
I don′t want your sympathy

Why me? (I tried to set you free)
Why me? (I loved you helplessly)
Why me when I was the one who could set your heart free?
Why me? (you stole a part of me)
Why me? (you loved me sinfully)
Why me? You took all the love I gave up selfishly
Why me?


Trapped in your space, never thought I could face
Going one step beyond
When I knew deep inside, I was strong

Now I know what it takes, can't repeat the mistakes
When new love comes along
It'll give me what I′ll call my own

Oh, you gave me nothing but misery
And I gave so much more
You used me oh so helplessly
I don′t want your sympathy

Why me? (I tried to set you free)
Why me? (I loved you helplessly)
Why me when I was the one who could set your heart free?
Oh, why me? (you stole a part of me)
Why me? (you loved me sinfully)
Why me? You took all the love I gave up selfishly

(I tried to set you free)
Why me? (I loved you helplessly)
Why me when I was the one who could set your heart free?
Oh, why me? (you stole a part of me)
Why me? (you loved me sinfully)
Why me? You took all the love I gave up selfishly


Why me? (I tried to set you free)
Why me? (I loved you helplessly)
Why me when I was the one who could set your heart free?
Oh-oh, why me? (I loved you sinfully)
Why me? (I loved you totally)
Why me? (why me, why me, why me?)
Oh, why me? (I loved you sinfully)

Why me? (I loved you sinfully)
Why me? (I loved you totally)
Why me? (why me, why me, why me?)
Why me? Oh, keep your sympathy

Why me? (I loved you sinfully)
(I loved you totally) I love you totally
(Why me, why me, why me?) I love you totally
(I loved you sinfully) Why me?
(I loved you sinfully) Ooh, why me?
(I loved you totally) Why me?
(Why me, why me, why me?) Did not know you, baby
(I loved you sinfully)
(I loved you sinfully) Completely
(I loved you totally) Why me?
