[Verse 1]
Why oh why must I sit and cry
That's not the sorta thing I like to do
Why oh why did we say goodbye
When I know I'm still in love with you

[Verse 2]
Why oh why am I still pretending
You'll come back to me
When in my heart
I know that happy endings can never be

[Chorus]
And though I try to get you off my mind
I found that's not an easy thing to do
'Cause when I try to get you off my mind
I end up wondering if you're trying too

[Verse 3]
Why oh why am I still pretending
All alone yes all alone
I guess it's just because
I know I'll never have you for my own
