Tell me why, why did you have to lie
Why, it's burning me inside
And then you said goodbye
Why, when this love for you was right

All I wanted
Was to hold you, kiss and love you through the night (through the night)
You said you cared then, I've been afraid when
You said you love me but you made me cry

Tell me why you said you love me
Tell me why you had to go
Tell me all the things I really didn't know

Tell me why you said you loved me
Tell me why you broke my heart
Tell me why all I did just fell apart

Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why (why)

Now the reason I am free
You, you kept on hurting me
And you, you were just using me
But I, I was so blind to see cause

All I wanted was to hold you (to hold you)
To kiss and love you through the night (through the night)
You said you cared then, I've been afraid when
You said you loved me but you made me cry

Tell me why you said you loved me
Tell me why you had to go
Tell me all the things I really didn't know

Tell me why you said you love me
Tell me why you broke my heart
Tell me why all I did just fell apart

All I wanted was to hold you (to hold you)
Kiss and love you through the night (through the night)
You said you cared and I've been afraid when
You said you loved me but you made me cry

Tell me why you said you loved me (why, why, why, why, why)
Tell me why you kept checking my mind
Tell me all the things I really didn't know

Tell me why you said you loved me
Tell me why you broke my heart
Tell me why all I did just fell apart

Tell me why, tell me why, why you broke my heart
Tell me, tell me why
You broke my heart
Why did you have to go
You left me alone
Tell me why
