But we could have stayed together
But we could have stayed together
Did you feel you couldn't stay?
To make everything okay
Tell me why, oh why
Decided to
We could have had it all
But you wanted it this way
And then let go
And we try, we try
But you wanted it this way
Your plan all along
That without me
Did we end up this way?
To make everything okay
All of the things you said about us
Did you feel you couldn't stay?
Now where is the trust
Yet you turned your back and walked out on me
But you wanted it this way
You never thought
Tell me why, oh why
Tell me why, oh why
Tell me why, oh why
And we try, we try
That without me
Did we end up this way?
And we try, we try
Tell me why, oh why
Will never be as good as what you had with me
It started a team
Now tell me was it
(Can you tell me?)
Your hopes and dreams
But you turned your back
To make everything okay
Your life would be so much better but now you see
Did we end up this way?
I guess that you never played by the rules
That I would find out
And we try, we try
Will never be as good as what you had with me
Tell me why, oh why
But you wanted it this way
When you're the one who
Did you feel you couldn't stay?
That's without me
But we could have stayed together
What made you think
But we could have stayed together
You promised to love
To make everything okay
But you wanted it this way
But you weren't as true as you always seem
But we could have stayed together
Your life would be so much better than now you see
What made you think
Did you feel you couldn't stay?
No matter what
To make everything okay
Tell me why, oh why
And we try, we try
That's without me
Ooh
To make everything okay
To try and use me
It started with dreams
Tell me why, oh why
Did we end up this way?
Did we end up this way?
Did you feel you couldn't stay?
Tell me why, oh why
Did we end up this way?
But we could have stayed together
Did you feel you couldn't stay?
Tell me why, oh why
And we try, we try
So tell me why, oh why
Your hopes and dreams
Erase all our plans and said you are through
We had between us
Tell me why, oh why
