I could see her fall from grace Like a movie star too old to change her life With a bottle by her hand Every night she went away I would pray for someone else to change her life If she wouldn't change for me
Tell me why Please tell me why You stole my life
Tell me why
Just drown her fear in the same old song Everytime you came back frozen deep inside Was it my love that you feared I was a misfit all the way Never there to help me grow and change my life Then you smiled and walked away
Tell me why Please tell me why You stole my life
Tell me why
All the little things she said to me (said to me) Were broken thoughts and tainted dreams (tainted dreams) If she can't take these memories It doesn't change a thing (it doesn't change a thing) Every little word she said to me (said to me) That broke my heart and stayed with me (stayed with me) I wish that she could hear me scream She never changed a thing
Tell me why Please tell me why You stole my life Life
Tell me why
This can't go on This can't go on This can't go on This can't go on This can't go on
