I heard you say to me
There were no guarantees
And that the world could make you cry
And then you let me go
But I still wanna know
Tell me why
Tell me why
Na, na, na, na, naaa
I-I-I-I
Maybe it's destiny
Maybe it's just for me
Tell me why
Oh, why
Darlin' you let me go
But I still wanna know
Tell me why
Tell me why
Na, na, na, na, naa
Oh, won't you tell me why
I-I-I-I
Na, na, na, na, naa
Darlin' you let me go
But I still wanna know
Tell me why
Tell me why
Oh, won't you tell me why
I-I-I-I
Na, na, na, na, naa
Maybe it's destiny
Maybe it's just for me
Tell me why
