But Why
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 open doors all by myself
And I'm strong enough to face
This world without anybody's help
But why
Why would I want to
Why, Why
Would you love me like you do
I could go on livin'
Without tastin' your kiss
Get by without this moment
You touchin' me like this
But why
I could keep this feeling
Locked in my heart
I can bury these emotions
And put up my guard
But why
Why start resistin'
Why, why
Look at all I'd be missin'
I could go on livin'
Without tastin' your kiss
Get by without this moment
You touchin' me like this
But why would I do that
I'd have to be crazy
To give up all you give me
What you do to me, Baby
Oh, I could go on livin'
Without tastin' your kiss
Get by without this moment
You touchin' me and holdin' me
Lovin' me like this
But why
Why would I want to baby
Oh, why
