Why (Made Popular By Annie Lennox) [Vocal Version]

Why

Why

How many times do I have to try to tell you

That I'm sorry for the things I've done

Oh

When I start to try to tell you

That's when you have to tell me

Hey this kind of trouble's only just begun

I tell myself too many times

Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut

That's why it hurts so bad

To hear the words that keep on falling from your mouth

Falling from your mouth

Falling from your mouth

Tell me why why

Why

I may be mad I may be blind

I may be viciously unkind

But I can still read what you're thinking

Oh

I'm afraid that I've said too many times

That you'd be better off besides

Why can't you see this boat is sinking

This boat is sinking

This boat is sinking

Let's go down to the water's edge

We can cast away those doubts

Some things are better left unsaid

They still turn me inside out

Turning inside out

Turning inside out tell me why

Tell me why

This is the book I never read

These are the words I never said

This is the part I'll never dread

These are the dreams I'll dream instead

This is the joy that seldom spread

These are the tears the tears we shed

These are the fears this is the dread

These are the contents of my head

These are the years we and this is what they represent

This is how I feel

Do you know how I feel

'cause if you think you know

I don't think you know what I feel

Love

I don't think you know what I fear
