Why Lyrics

Gilbert O'Sullivan Why

Why is it you must be
so very cruel to me
in order to be kind
Why when I hold you close
do you insist your toes
are being stood on by mine
Why when I kiss your lips
do you astound me
saying that you won't put
your arms around me
no one should be that cold
What ever I've done
surely I've
a right to know
oh why oh why oh why
Why is it ev'ry time
we visit friends of mine
you never want to go
Why when I'm feeling good
you act as if I should
be at an all time low
Why after all these years
we've been together
must you behave as if
we'd hardly ever
spoken let alone met
It seems that you're
happy as long
as I'm upset
oh why oh why oh why
Is it that you don't love me
oh why
have you just had enough of me
oh why do I always have to cry
myself to-oo sleep
seven days a week
La la la la la la la . . .
Why in the name of God
are you so angry
could it be that you can
no longer stand me tell
me and I will go
You're breaking my heart
just in case
you didn't know
oh why oh why oh why . . .
