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