Why

Somebody said -
That you were getting married
And somebody said - Today
It couldn't be you,
I claimed it must be a mistake
But sitting in the Church
I suddenly gaze into your face
A second of no - Control
How can it be true
That I am the last to know
Baby - Baby
Why, so treacherous to me,
I thought we were in love
Why did you never marry me
You gave me your word
I waited
Why - This tragi-comedy, oooh
Baby, baby, please dont hurt me
Give it to me
That ring on her finger
Give it to me - Instead
It should have been me
´Cause no-one could take my place,
Remember, remember
Wasn´t it good
You had a good time
Living on lies
And your bed never got cold
But what about me?
Exploited degraded and thrown,
Baby, baby
Why, so treacherous to me,
I thought we were in love
Why did you never marry me
You gave me your word
I waited
Why - This tragi-comedy, oooh
Baby, baby, please dont hurt me
Watching my baby -
Kissing his white bride
You´ve promised to love her,
Till death do you part
I closed my eyes and try to understand
I feel the pain
You can´t do this to me babe
How dare you
If I can´t be happy
You can´t be happy
Gonna make her my best friend
Thought I hate her sight
I tell her all the things
you want tell her
Listen to me now, baby
It´s got to be a mistake
Baby can´t you hear me
Say, you hear me
You dont love her
You dont love her
You dont know what you´re doing honey
She twisted your head
I was the one you loved
Oh baby
Why, so treacherous to me,
I thought we were in love
Why did you never marry me
You gave me your word
I waited
Why - This tragi-comedy, oooh
Baby, baby, please dont hurt me
Baby, dont hurt me so
Dont go
