Why by Annie Lennox
(Why)
(Why)
How many times
Do I have to try to tell you
That I'm (1)__________ for the things I've done
(Oooh)
But when I start to try to (2)________ you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, this (3)________ of trouble's (4)________ (5)________ begun
I tell (6)____________ too (7)________ times
Why don't you ever learn
To (8)________ (9)________ big (10)__________ shut
That's why it hurts so bad
To hear the words
That (11)________ on falling from (12)________ mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me
(Why)
(Why)
I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read
What you're thinking
(Ooooh)
And I've heard it said too (13)________ times
That you'd be (14)____________ off
Besides
Why can't you see this (15)________ is sinking
This boat is sinking (this boat is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast (16)________ those doubts
Some (17)____________ are better left unsaid
But they still turn me (18)____________ out
Turning (19)____________ out
Turning (20)____________ out
Tell me
(Why)
Tell me
(Why)
This is the book I never read
These are the words I (21)__________ said
This is the path I'll (22)__________ tread
These are the dreams I'll (23)__________ instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears, the tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years (24)________ we've spent
And this is (25)________ they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you (26)________ what I feel
I don't (27)__________ you know what I feel
You don't know (28)________ I feel
