Tell Me Why

(album: Pearls - 1997)

Wake up every morning
Within your warm embrace
To feel the rhythm of your heart
And lie there face to face

On love's wings we were flying
There were visions in my mind
I didn't realise love makes you blind

Keep heart, my babe, dry your tears
Save them for another day
But sometimes it's so hard
You feel the need to stay

Tell me why, tell me why I'm so lonely
Why you left me without saying goodbye
Tell me why, tell me why you're the only
Only reason for, the reason for the tears that I cried

The roads we used to follow
Seemed to lead to heaven's door
But now we've lost our way for evermore

Keep heart, my babe, dry your tears
Save them for another day
But sometimes it's so hard
You feel the need to stay

Tell me why, tell me why I'm so lonely
Why you left me without saying goodbye
Tell me why, tell me why you're the only
Only reason for, the reason for the tears that I cried

Tell me why, tell me why I'm so lonely
Why you left me without saying goodbye
Tell me why, tell me why you're the only
Only reason for, the reason for the tears that I cried
