Tell Me Why

Tell Me Why

Seasons have passed years they have gone by

Is time the great healer its made out to be?

We carry on our heads held high

But inside our broken hearts are hid, hidden from sight

Tell me will it be you who comes for me from the other side

I know it will be you who'll come for me from the other side

Tell me why did you have to go?

Gone and left us all on our own

And now number eighteen is where you lie

Peacefully gazing up at the skies

Tell me please where are you now?

Help us to carry on living somehow

When the lights flicker is it you drawing near?

I call out your name but you don't seem to hear

Tell me how you still managed to smile

When your fate you must have known all the while

Then on one black day came your last sigh

Did we really get a chance to say goodbye?

Tell me will it be you who comes for me from the other side

I know it will be you who'll come for me from the other side

Tell me why did you have to go?

Gone and left us all on our own

And now number eighteen is where you lie

Peacefully gazing up at the skies

Tell me please where are you now?

Help us to carry on living somehow
