Why?
He remembers the first time he made her laugh
The way her eyes sparkled and she really smiled
He prefers that to the memory of first making her cry
Such sadness and beauty - He asked himself 'Why?'
Why does he hurt her?
When all he does is love her?
When all he wants is to protect her?
Why is he always the source of her pain?
He remembers the first time he kissed her
When he held his lips to hers and whispered his love
He tries to forget the first time he lied to her
He broke her trust like the wings of a fragile dove
Why does he always hurt her?
When he'd die for her
Why is he always the source of her pain?
What is there for him to gain?
He remembers the first time he saw her
When she walked into his life like out of a dream
But mostly he's haunted by the day she left
Tears running down her cheeks in a silent stream
Why does he always hurt her?
When all he wants is a lifetime shared with her
Why is he always the source of her pain?
Why is she leaving now - in the pouring rain?
