[Verse 1]
Now it seems I can't keep my mind off of you
My brain drifts back to better days we've been through
Like sitting on blacktops of the school grounds
The love I bitched about, I finally had found

[Chorus]
But now it's gone and I take the blame
But there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

[Verse 2]
Now I dwell on what you remind me of
A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love
As for me, I am blind without a cause
And now I realized what I have lost

[Chorus]
It was something real that I could've had
Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad
Why?

[Bridge]
Tell me what the words I might have said
That's pumping pressure deep inside my head
Was it bad enough to be too late?
Just tell me the words I might have ate
The words I might have ate
The words I might have ate
[Chorus]
But now it's gone and I take the blame
But there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

[Outro]
Why? Why?
Why? Oh why?
Why? Why?
