WHY

I’ve been waiting for so long for this moment to come
I’ve been wondering the day I would see you
And touch you again, and when I get you in my arms
Kiss your lips and go back to the start
But life’s played tricks on me
By the time I was out of here

So please tell me why you couldn’t wait
So please tell me why now I can’t stay
Please tell me why it had to be this way
Even if I’ve been too far away
Baby I would never leave you a shame

And now I’m holding on in line
Waiting my turn to find a place to hide
‘Cause you couldn’t keep inside everything you promised me
And I thought I’d never die, you lied I can’t believe

(Yeah life’s played tricks on me
By the time I was out of here)
