Lyrics
Why do you make me feel the way you do?
Why do you make me care?
Why do you whisper words I long to hear when you know it can never be...
Why should I believe you're telling me the truthwhen you say that you're leaving her?
Why should I believe that you are sincere when you tell me that I'm your girl?
Tell me, when did you start to live in my heart, melting the others away?
Tell me, when will I stop falling apart,knowing we won't have our day?
Why can't I see through your silly game - using me just for fun.
Why do I let you cause me such pain pretending that I'm the one.
Why do you make me hunger for your touch when I know you're no good for me.
Why is it you I want to love so much when I know it can never be.
Tell me, why do I want you?
Why do I need you?
Why do I really care?
Tell me, why, oh why, are you so blind? Tell me why, oh why can't you be mine? Tell me why, oh why, oh why do I love you ... so...?
