I Don't Know Why

I don't know why

I love you like I do

but baby I love you

and always I'll be true

I know sometimes

you treat me like a fool

try to bend me to your rules

but I love you all the same

'cause when we're together

and everything's alright

I'm a king for the day

I don't know why

I fall but don't fall down

but I never touch the ground

whenever you're around

I don't know where

we may be tomorrow

if you lead I will follow

and we'll get there just the same

I'll always love you

every day and night

come and take me away

can't you see that you're the only one

and I'm open wide

you saved me from being a lonely one

you caught me inside

with a feeling I can't resist

you take me away

and I'll never get over this

a king today

river

I'm swimming in a deep river

I hope that river

is a long river

well I know sometimes that you like to play

messing with my mind but I love you anyway

I don't know why you say what you say

every night I pray that you never go away

well I know sometimes that you like to play

(it's a game you play)

messing with my mind but I love you anyway

(I love you anyway)

I'm trying hard to say that I love you every day

(despite the things you say)

but I'm hoping and I'm praying that you never go away

(never go away)

'cause when we're together

and everything's alright

I'm a king for the day

and I'll always love you

every day and night

come and take me away
