Why

Well I couldn't be preapared to say goodbye today
As I held the baby in my hands
She was a sweet and gentle flower when she died today
And now I just can't seem to understand
I'll have a question for you
About the things that you do
When we meet face-to-face, eye-to-eye
So for now would you forgive me as I cry and say
I'm still just askin'....Why?
Yeah the doctor said,"I'm sorry, it won't be long today"
There was nothin' more that he could do
And after all our tears and all our prayers are gone today.
Is there an answer to what we've been through
I'll have a question for you
About things that you do
Cuz I can't grasp it as hard as I try
So for now would you forgive me as I cry and say
Cuz I'm still just askin'....Why?
Why? Why?
When we meet in the sweet bye and bye
So for now would you forgive me while I cry and say
I'm still just askin'...Why?
In the darkness of a garden half a world away
While his friends just couldn't stay awake
I see the anguished face of Jesus as he kneels to pray
Would the Father his only son forsake?
He had a question for you
About the things that you do
Then he breathed his last breath and he died
So for now would you forgive me while I cry and say
I'm still just askin"....Why?
Why? Why?
I may ask till the day that I die
So for now would you forgive me while I cry and say
I'm still just askin'.... Why?
