lyrics

Why Did I?
by Sarah Farthing

Why did I stay awake for you, why did I-I?
My arms were aching for a song.
Why did I play the game with you, why did I-I?
Could only win it for so long.

Oh-oh, oh oh oh oh oh (x2)

Why did I say those words to you , why did I-I?
I thought they wanted to ring true.
And when they fell why did I cry, why did I cry, oh?
Those words were true, but not for you.

Oh-oh, oh oh oh oh oh (x2)

These are the things we tend to do,
When we are young, when we are young
And though we cry when they are done,
They break us down, and build us up.

Why did I give my heart to you, why did I-I?
Lord knows you didn't earn it well.
And when you came to give it back, why did I hide, oh?
Some things you know I'll never tell.

Oh-oh, oh oh oh oh oh (x2)
Oh-oh, oh oh oh oh oh (x2)
