Escaping nights without you
with shadows on the wall
my mind is running wild
trying hard not to fall
you told me that you love me
but say I'm just a friend
my heart is broken up into pieces
cos I know
I'll never free my soul
it's trapped between true love and being alone
when my eyes are closed
the greatest story told
I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor

why oh why
tell me why not me
why oh why
we were meant to be
baby i know i could be all you need
why oh why oh why
I wanna love you
if you only knew how much I love you
so why not me

the day after tomorrow
I'll still be around
to catch you when you fall
and never let you down
you say that we're forever
our love will never end
I've tried to come up
but it's drowning me to know
you'll never free my soul
it's trapped in between true love and being alone
when my eyes are closed
the greatest story told
I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor

Tell me baby
why oh why
tell me why not me
why oh why
we were meant to be
baby i know I could be all you need
why oh why oh why
I wanna love you
if you only knew how much I love you
so why not me

you won't ever know
how far we can go
you won't ever know
how far we can go (go)

why oh why
tell me why not me
why oh why
we were meant to be
baby I know I could be all you need
why oh why oh why

why oh why
tell me why not me
why oh why
we were meant to be
baby I know i could be all you need
why oh why oh why oh why
I wanna love you
if you only knew how much I love you
so why not me
