[Verse 1]
Don't you know that your my reason
For my love, my life, my being
So secure and so damn sure my
Heart would surely die without you

[Chorus 1]
I tried to swallow my pride
But I felt my heart start to tremble inside
Wish I didn't know cause I can't let you go
Tell me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why
Why when I looked in your eyes
I felt my heart start to cry
My oh my
When I saw you with the other girl

[Chorus 2]
Ooh why
Why did you have to lie
Cause I felt the trust start to die
Why o why
When I still love you
It's so hard to say goodbye

[Verse 2]
How can you tell me it was nothing
Cause you took away everything I dreamed in
Just a night and I held you tight
When you know you were sleeping in my bed

[Chorus 1]
I tried to swallow my pride
But I felt my heart start to tremble inside
Wish I didn't know cause I can't let you go
Tell me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why
Why when I looked in your eyes
I felt my heart start to cry
My oh my
When I saw you with the other girl

[Chorus 2]
Ooh why
Why did you have to lie
Cause I felt the trust start to die
Why o why
When I still love you
It's so hard to say goodbye

[Verse 3]
Should I quietly leave through the door
Or maybe pretend the way things were once before
When I met you
I'll never forget you, so

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why
Why when I looked in your eyes
I felt my heart start to cry
My oh my
When I saw you with the other girl

[Chorus 2]
Ooh why
Why did you have to lie
Cause I felt the trust start to die
Why o why
When I still love you
It's so hard to say goodbye
