I don't know why I cry
Or why I ache for something new
I don't know why I try
Or why I see forever in me and you.
****
I don't know why I pretend
Or why I wear this mask so much
I don't know why it's you I defend
Or why I long for your warm touch.
****
I don't know why I seek you out
Or why I pray to be with you today
I don't know why I scream and shout
Or why I let myself feel this way.
I don't know why I love you
Or why I want you back again
I don't know why I feel so blue
Or why I want you as a friend.
****
I don't know why you hurt me
Or why I see you as being so cold
I don't know why we can't set this free
Or why I want you there to hold.
