[Chorus] Why does Monday come before Tuesday Why do summers start in June Why do winters come too soon Why do people fall in love When they're always breaking up, oh why Why do I love you, tell me why It's not like I can explain what's in my heart It's just I feel a crazy pain with we're apart I don't want to breathe I don't want to think I don't want to love I don't want to do anything It's not like I can't describe what's going on It's just I feel I'm not alive when your not home I don't want to sleep I don't want to be I just want you here beside me Without you there's no me [Chorus] Why do we love if love will die Why does Wednesday come after Tuesday Why do flowers come in May Why does springtime go away Why do people fall in love When they're always breaking up Oh why Why do I love you, tell me why It's not like I can escape what's in my soul 'Cause with you inside my heart where can I go I don't want to see No you without me I can't go through life without you Without you there's no me [Chorus] Why do we love if love will die? Why do the rivers flow to the sea Even if it flows Why can't your love flow to me, babe Why does my heart feel sadness To be in love, to feel your love Why don't I feel complete [Chorus] Why do I love you, tell me why Tell me why Tell me why Tell my why Tell my why
