Why Not Me?

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You're standing right in front of me

With a purpose I can't see

I wish I knew whats on your mind

But thats a key I'll never find

I wanna know what I did wrong

I really waited for so long

To be alone with you again

I bet your game will never end

And everybody knows your name

You're driving everyone insane

I saw you flirting with that guy

It made me jealous don't know why

I know I'm not the only one

But when all you said and done

You wonder who your date would be

I wonder, Katherine, why not me?

Tonight is dark and you are gone

Again I'm wondering on my lawn

I guess I'll never know the truth

About the secrets from your youth

And if you played me all those times

I kind of thought that you'll be mine

But when I realize your world

You're just a happy little girl

And everybody knows your name

You're driving everyone insane

I saw you flirting with that guy

It made me jealous don't know why

I know I'm not the only one

But when all you said and done

You wonder who your date would be

I wonder, Katherine, why not me?

Katherine why not me

(Katherine why not me?)

Katherine why not me

(Katherine why not me?)

You know I'm glad that you're my friend

I hope this story never ends

But there are times I nearly cry

You make me weak I don't know why

I know I'm not the only one

But If you'd like to have some fun

Wherever you might want to be

Just say Katherine, why not me?

And everybody knows your name

You're driving everyone insane

I saw you flirting with that guy

It made me jealous don't know why

I know I'm not the only one

But when all you said and done

You wonder who your date would be

I wonder, Katherine, why not me?

So Katherine why not me...
