Lyrics
Why Not
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.
I can show my weakness when I say I love you
I can show my madness when I say I hate you
I could never hate you
All I want is for you to do the same
You don't like to share your feelings
Or the secrets that you're keeping
I can't help but wonder, why not?
Am I lost or out of touch?
You give love, but not too much
And I can't help but wonder
I can't help but wonder, why not?
When you're all that I've got, hey-hey
Why not?
You're all that I've got
And I can't help but wonder, why not?
I've got to keep on moving
Why do you stay where you are?
Standing right beside me, ooh
Why do you feel so far?
All I want is for you to do the same
You don't like to share your feelings
Or the secrets that you're keeping
I can't help but wonder, why not?
Am I lost or out of touch?
You give love, but not too much
And I can't help but wonder
I can't help but wonder, why not?
When you're all that I've got, hey-hey
Why not?
You're all that I've got
And I can't help but wonder, why not?
You don't like to share your feelings
Or the secrets that you're keeping
I can't help but wonder, why not?
Am I lost or out of touch?
You give love, but not too much
And I can't help but wonder
I can't help but wonder, why not?
Why not?
Why not?
You're all that I've got
And I can't help but wonder, why not?
