[Ben:] The sun is shining, the rain comes in
And I don't know what to do, no...
I don't know where I'm going or where I've been 'cause my mind is hooked on you.
Words escape me and tears come down and day slowly turns to night
And I think of all we could have been,
I gave up the fight.

[Ben:] And you don't
([All:] you don't),
Understand
([All:] understand),
Girl you make me all I am,
But I'm starting to see, just how hard it can be, on my own
And I'm sorry baby won't you come home?

[Ben:] You said that we'd been defeated
But oh I am so addicted
Your love is all I need to get by.
You told me that you and I would always be true
But you lied
And you're not in love and I don't know why
No, I don't know why

[Paul:] The days around me and years roll on
And I still don't think it's right
([All:] don't think it's right)
And I have so much love to give,
But I gave up the fight.

[Paul:] Now you don't
([All:] you don't),
Understand
([All:] understand),
Girl you made me all I am,
Now I've started to see, just how hard it could be, on my own
And I'm sorry baby won't you come home?

[Ben:] You said that we'd been defeated,
But oh I am so addicted,
Your love is all I need to get by.
You told me that you and I would always be true,
But you lied
And you're not in love and I don't know why.

[Paul:] No I can't make it alone
([Ben:] I don't know why)
And I can't be here without you in my life
And so I ask you, why, you still deny?

[Ben:] And you don't,
Understand,
Girl you made me all I am
But I'm starting to see, just how hard it can be, on my own
And I'm sorry baby won't you come home?

[All:] You said that we'd been defeated,
But oh I am so addicted,
Your love is all I need to get by.
You told me that you and I would always be true,
But you lied
And you're not in love and I don't know why.

[Ben:] No, I don't know why,
Just tell me why,
Please tell me why.
